    I wonder what Big Dog Garage could fabricate on our budget. Incredible talents there.

    That's cool. Nice vid. of the car and it's builders. I bet that was a fun afternoon too!

    All cars are now running. Time to go shopping for something that is broken.

    For some reason, all of the video wasn't visible to me, I was only getting bits and pieces of a view of the car. Did he buy it?

    for me it only skipped the opening commercial overview of the challenge, and of the car with four of the guys who helped build it, and some detail on how they did so for the budget. nicely done...

    insert witty phrase here..

    That's nice. It's nice to see there are still truly good people out there.

    You know you are deep in boost territory when you get tire pressures and boost pressures confused

    Darn that thing looks seksy, especially considering the pics of how fragged it was when they got it.

    I took a photo of the car at a cincy car show a couple years ago.

    Jay: "..could you fire it up?"
    Team Cheaparral (almost in unison): "It would blow the roof off."

    Where's the "thumbs up" icon?

    How can it be a midlife crisis, when I've driven sportscars my entire life?
