Default Almost ready for Norwalk

After last years thrash to get there and some issues afterward, we finally have the new engine in and the car is ready to go to get a few loose ends wrapped up, we should be ready for Norwalk 2016.

Very nice Jim. But the big question is it faster then the mower behind it?

I am glad you are all together and ready to race. I know it was a longer thrash than you planned. Car is beautiful. Your allot further along than we are. Still working on installing sleeves on our end and a list of other items that would crash the internet if all typed out. Best of luck this year.

Looks great Jim. And I am sure it will be as fast as it looks.

What race(s) are you running?

Looking great Jim. Sure wish I was going to be at Norwalk to see it run this year. Plans have changed again. Maybe next year.

Always great to hear your going to make it Jim, considering the 1st year I made it to Norwalk, you won the Quick 16.
