Thanks for posting it over here. I checked out the main board and wondered if someone would post over here.
Thanks, Robert

You guys put together some top notch machines.

[Mr. Mac]

Congrats! You guys did GOOD.

Thanks to you guys for your encouragement and help with photo's, it made us think, as well as giving us inspiration.

I sincerely trust that one day we can race side by side, although, it may be a 'good' thing that we're so far apart......we'd hate to 'beat ya';) :D

Thanks also to Matt who has been there through all the madness, invested alot of time and effort, and taken a crapload of great photo's.....thanks again.

Cheers,

Drewfus:)

I looked over about a gazillion of hotrodmatt's pictures and I noticed that most of your cars did not appear to have front shock absorbers. Have I missed something? Was the bounce controlled? Any steering problems?

[Drewfus]

Jim, sadly they werent on there(or at least in the traditional sense) for race day, but they will be added shortly as yes, the front end could certainly use them.

Cheers,

Drewfus

The host may have taken it down by now. I think he usually only leaves the samples up for a little while.
