Thanks Rudy. No sale planned right now. Of course for a price...

This weekend's project was to add a little bit of color to the car. Painted the wing tips and mirrors speed yellow. New numbers coming next. Same color as the current numbers, but a bit more flash to them.

Mike- it looks great, looking forward to seeing it next weekend at TWS. We'll have 5 or more SPEC996 at the TWS club race in March. I'll have my JRZs and wing on by the end of the year.

As a young child did you always want to drive the tractor ?
If so it could explain why you are always off course cutting the grass and why you now have a race car painted John Deere colors.

Just messing with you, looks great !

I would think that one of the new sponsor requirements would be that you actually know how to drive a tractor...

Well true, but I have so much experience driving in the grass that I suspect I could handle it just fine.

Great car Mike! I am still enjoying the "shed" center console in my car. All it needs now is one more matching logo...
