Not really true. Year one they were a novelty to me. cool but too slow. I had a Mark Williams Chassis at my disposal so my 60s senses got in the way.............fast forward to this weekend, the cars are FAST. I still have the need for speed with the altered, I stopped by my chassis builder pals house tonight to discuss our project.....................we are cool, I already traded some parts for my chassis work. Then Randy laid it on me, a killer fresh vintage 6 outta a Ford Truck that he is prostreeting for a guy. Dude wanted him to throw the mill away. The engine and tranny look like something outta a new car.

So, it looks like I have the local idiots (myself included) talked into building TWO cars for next year!

WTF are we thinking...............

Right Rashy, the only thinking I did last weekend was in going to bed before the sun came up.

In the words of Yoda, "there is no try, only do".

The quote may not be exact, but the thought is correct.

If you want it, build it.

The best thing to do is the right thing.
The second best thing to do is the wrong thing.
The worst thing to do is nothing.
