I do think the craftsmanship is great looking based on the picture. Any more pictures of the car from different angles?

Biter........j/k!

Its nice to see someone else finally went with the top/bottom two tone scheme.
Thats errily similar to mine,from the widebody to the paint and the color break.The wing is a bit much,but I can hardly talk.......looks nice,wonder whats under the hood.

That looks like an aftermarket FC front end with some work to me. I would like to see more angles of it and am also curious on status under the hood

Schedule conflict.
Being a small,local buisness with changing seasons,my schedule changes every few months.This can make plans difficult,especially on the weekends and since Im head of the shop,its not a simple thing for me to up and leave on a Fri-Sat.
Back in 05' I made a one day trip there and back,but it was a killer requiring me to leave home at 2AM and get back around 10PM....didnt want to do that again,even for another trophey!
