We really need to find a race to get the flame cars together for a team photo.

Sounds fair enough Think you can handle the massive power of the Boxster! Dave & I need to discuss this April 8 hour thing. We'll keep you in the loop. We are probably going to bring Steve & I's two Boxsters & use Todd for support/crew. I'd like to bring John out from Cali to drive as well.

I assure you that I can run faster than everyone on your team. if we raced on foot. my mx5 cup car is about the same speed as a spec boxster until aero starts kicking in at 100+ then the brick like mazda can't really accel to much!

seriously though- april is kinda "work" season for me. I only have 4 off days that month and they're all on school nights. what is the date for the race? I'll have to tell my friends on commander road- they just finished a spbox

are you going to be at the track this weekend? I'm in town for a few more days- lots of workouts and speaking to school kids about for the D.A.R.E. program.

Oh yeah, Spring does kind of get busy for you guys

When did Hans' finish the Box? I need to get down there & check it out!

We'll be out @ ECR on Sat. If you have some down time, buzz on out.

they just got it delivered from paint today- it is complete. acura championship white- like the older Type R integras. it looks really good- will snap some of my own photos tomorrow!

I might swing by ECR and say hi, I've really got nothing going on.
