My wife and I have 6 dogs - all rescues. She is a Vet Tech and also has a pet sitting business called "Goin' To The Dogs". It's called that because she donates all of her net proceeds from this little business to rescues in our area, hence the proceeds are "Goin' to the Dogs". Since dogs and racing are kind of our life we decided to just combine two.

One of our rescues - Miss Muscle Butt:

Good deal and a very worthy cause. My wife said, "what a face in that photo, how sweet is that" !

Not always - we have a big storm due late Sunday night and it's supposed to rain all week! Nice today though - about 75 degrees, great February weather!

As for the street - nope, not street legal. Of course we do live in a rural area so.....

i was just at SP yesterday, POC is doing TT up there this weekend. too bad you couldn't make it up here. my slow cayman was bombarded with 500hp lwt 993 bodies cars, multiple cup cars and one RSR... i felt like i was driving backwards.

The graphics are vinyl and were done by a local shop called CGS. They do a lot of movie stuff (giant banners and the like) and they have done the last few company cars. The design was done in house by the Mechanix Wear design team.

There is a metal heat shield there. Not sure if that is stock or not - your's doesn't have it?
