Gives one something to think about for sure...
Thank you,
I do love the challenge of a new track.

Mark,

How did you like the new hoosiers? I noticed them in the pictures.

The car looks amazing. Nice work Mr C.

Hi Ceedee,

Well, like I said I'm not giving it away that's for sure, but it's still pretty reasonable considering all the man hours and money spent. I guess if I was really serious about this I would put it on Ebay with no reserve. Thanks for the compliment, we'll see what happens. Sorry I couldn't visit with you a bit more at Sebring but I did not want to hold up the tow driver up any.

Mark K.,

Thanks again for the nice words. You would be one who knows how much it takes to get the little things done, some that won't ever be seen or noticed. As far as the Hoosiers, from what I could tell from Mark A.'s feedback and his times, he didn't seem to hate them! They were also wearing pretty evenly throughout the weekend. When I flipped them from side to side for the race (predominately right hand turn track) Mark A. and I did not see much if any difference between the two sides.

Cheers,
Constantine

I am with every one else here in wanting you to keep this great looking car.
The folks here will help you, as you have helped so many of us, myself included.
What parts do you need for your rebuild?
A lot of us have spares sitting around?

You could not build this car for $12,000 just for the parts you have into it.

If you sell it, me and some of the boys will drive to FL and verbably abuse you.

What is going on with the motor.

The motor needs the drilled crank I have for sale for $1k, and possible a rod or two that I also could provide

Constantine,

Listen to your wife!

That is one beeyoutiful car you've got and it would be a shame to have to part with it. I wish I were in a position to buy it, it's clearly worth way more than you're asking.

Maybe some of us would be willing to kick in and become very small, very silent partners in 'team Constantine'. How about 'Red Shark Racing'.

Ahhh Common Man!!! You simply CANNOT sell that race Shark!

BTW..... just got an email from the lady at Pano who asked me some ??s at Sebring with her copy of two possible entries for next month's copy. Also a pic from several that I sent to her from the Sebring event. The pic she chose shows the hood of your Coke Race Shark with ours across the road and made it a black & white version. AND her caption references both Constantine AND Mark!! Cross your fingers that her larger write up makes it to print along with the photo cause 928s don't get alot of Pano time!

So.... Now this shark might end up being even MORE famous of a racer!!! Excellence AND Pano!! How many of ANY Porsche can say that eh??

So for once man, listen to your wife. Walk away from those fears of the mountain in front of you with the rebuild & let the rest of us convince you to take it one step at a time & before you know it, you'll have it back on the track!
