Chris, Not last long? No racing, no race car for two and a half months!
Thanks Dave, see you at Sebring (or walking the docks at Soverall Harbor)
Yes racing and integrating the sport with family and business took its toll. I sold the works, traveled to China, climbed Kangrinboqe Peak and met with The Dalai Lama. After days of fasting and conversation the decision was handed down "....buy a cup car with 3R conversion my son".
What a bright guy and full of wisdom!

Looks like quite a serious machine. Welcome back. I had a feeling it wouldn't be long. The Dalai Lama has spoken ...... "oonga boonga faloonga" , so I guess you have that going for you.
