First question I'd ask is "where ya gonna keep it?". The one I found, happily, just fits inside my garage in a standard car-length bay... it's a...
Poor old John didn't qualify again, this time in 'Vegas. If he keeps this up, he'll never make his next milestone, that of 1000 rounds of racing....
Looks better already than an exhibit hall full of cars I saw last weekend at the GNRS. You rock. The dash was a perfect choice. Hinge the quarter?...

Sorry; I knew there were ILLEGALLY made copies out there. For the few, apparently, who believe in things like copyright, I thought I might mention...
Thank YOU, sir. And Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Sorry if this is old news...didn't see a mention using the search tool...according to Roger Ebert's site, it was released 12/11. Better hurry and...
