The car is real fast, but it does not turn real fast....yet....

Here are some photos from Oscoda.....

Fake taillights and a V6 badge

We camped across the street from the air field..... so..... I had to drive the car to the camp site to do some detailing after practice

The front cover is off a Nissian

I started to rain lightly while I was cleaning it..... So I made a quick car port.......

Yea it was an air force base, now it is Wurtsmith Airport. We raced in a concrete lot on the north east side. Directly across from the state park. That is where we slept (the race crowd is great and all but... a camp site and a fire pit... no contest!) I did drive the car from the air field to the park (I only had to cross F41 to get there) and even tho it is only an escort, everyone had to stop over and check it out. Thursday night I did my longest mountain bike wheelie to date, from the camp ground down F41 and all the way to M23, 3.7 miles total nonstop. We had practice on Thursday and did sight seeing Friday and raced Saturday and Sunday. I live down in Jackson, next door to Ann Arbor. It was like 200 miles ea direction. It is a real nice area.... Can't wait till next year.

actually, i was staying at a campground in lupton, but we basically spent like 3 days in oscoda riding dirtbikes. if i would have known you were there, i woulda planned on checkin it/your car out. i'm down right next door to detroit. i still haven't had time to get on organizing that escort meet i was talkin about. maybe somebody else could hook it up, and we should just all show up. i might want to wait until i fix up my car a bit though. i think i'm gonna eventually buy a fiberglass hood for my car so it won't rust, or i'll get the specs for it and make one. once i start in college (month or two from now) i'll be able to work in the machining labs, and get ahold of metals/fiberglass really easily i think.

Ha. That's what I thought. Wrong.

I have thousands and thousands of dollars worth of awesome equipment to build just about anything I want, and absolutely no time to do any of it. It sucks.
