Will won 1st, 2nd and 3rd in his class. Pretty impressive with 1 car.

Yeah, we need some more race cars. The 44 car is very impressive, my car has very little on that one. Ron's car is also very nice and still a nicer car than mine (its much different than mine). The funny thing is that I think most people who don't know my car thought that it was just a normal street car made to look like a race car, rather than a race car in street car clothes.

Either way, its hard to loose when you are the only car entered in the class.

I still LOVE Will's new paint. It keeps all the charterer of the car, but now it's finished.

No, its not finished, its just a big step closer. It needs a correct grill, the new windshield installed, and a few other issues taken care of. I'm kinda bummed the motor and transmission needs to come back out again before I drive it any more. That kinda takes the fun out of things. Oh well, at least I have all the parts and a very vague idea of how to fix it myself.

Why didn't you get the windshield installed when it was being painted? Just asking as that makes sense.

Here's a link to a PDF file with pictures of almost all the winners. I didn't know two of the cars so I missed those two. If anyone has a picture of them, so I know what they look like, I can update the file.

Thanks

No time. I had it on hand, but the guy doing the painting wouldn't pull the windshield nor would he install one. I wanted to have it done, but it wasn't in the cards. It wasn't for a lack of trying.
