Widerstandsfahig 001-15 showed at Tuner Galleria Chicago which is part of the World of Wheels auto show yesterday and Won Best Overall Euro!
Very soon I will be able to not only show but race this new toy...hurry spring, hurry

Feedback on the "Widerstandsfahig" widebody brand has been enthusiastic and overwhelmingly positive. I couldn't be more appreciative.

I spent about an hour checking this car out at the show in Chicago. It (you) deserved the award.

Now counting days not weeks until I finally get to track the new racer. Shows are a great way to pass the time and meet some truly wonderful people. Widerstandsfahig 001 wins two trophies this weekend at Autofest 2017! Special thanks to Lane Automotive for the position as part of their display and to SBR SCCA for the opportunity.

No, I just haven't has the time to finish the last few items, get the fresh tires, and balance the car yet.
Deciding to develop the bodywork into a brand of it's own, the shows, and other builds has gobbled up a lot of race car time. But, I am very close.

This beauty is one of the mentioned culprits.

US.12 Speed & Custom Full Throttle Throwdown - The car took home one of twelve awards given at this top end builder show. US.12 builds award winning cars and their show pulls in the top builds from the area. To win one of the hand crafted trophies (and a spot in the 2018 calendar) is quite a feat for a foreign build at this show. Loving it.
