Cool Oodles of pics of my R1 freshly polished and waxed

Some recent pics......I spent an entire day this past weekend washing, polishing and waxing. The majority of the mechanical work was done by myself and the other guys at Gotham Racing, and the paintwork was done by Martin Oakland at Millenium Autoworks (right across the way from Gotham).

I plan on submitting some of these pics to various magazines in an effort to get the car featured. It may be too stock-appearing for some of the mags, but I think it's worth a shot, esp. given the long mod list. I am hoping to make over 400 rwhp on pump gas this coming weekend, which should help any chances of getting in a mag .

Rich, if we go cruising around Saturday I'm rolling with you since I have no FD!!! The Goat is no slouch but I don't want to stick out like a sore thumb.

Rich,

Nice pics, but your car, unlike my car, looks a lot better in person. The pictures make the car look pink when it is really a deep red.

I love your car, the '99 spec front and R1 wing look fantastic! But you need chuck's '99 spec oil cooler ducts, the old ones look funky in the new bumper.

Way to represent us VR's! Yes, I do agree though... our cars look more deep red in person than the pics do. Sweet ride man!

Probably one of the cleanest FD's on the forum. Did the paintshop paint your radiator red too?


They better feature your car in a magazine, cuz if they dont. Something bad will happen to them

Rich, your car always amazes me. As trini said, one of the cleanest on the forum. Your FD gives me all the more reason to go 99 spec.

Oh, and the *** end looks just fine to me.

Looks good.

But damn this red paint. In 90% of pictures, it turns out pink.

I'm sorry, but I don' think you will be featured in any current car mags. You just don't have enough neon lights or a tall enough wing

But Ryan might have pitty on ya

Looks great

Looks lovely. I regret buying the c-west front. The 99 spec looks amazing.
