Thanks for all the well-wishes guys.

Again, you can find a few pictures from Testing here: http://pics.bulletracing.ca/main.php?g2_itemId=7152

Not quite as sexy as the one with the DP on the high-bank, but it's what we have.

Looks HOT doesn't it, I WILL be fast, I know because I set It up, please follow us and our cause. If you have ANY questions in regards to your car feel free to PM me (will give advice for donations). Doesn't this car make you feel proud to be CANADIAN, EH.

FYI, that was Bernie, the Chief Mechanic of the car, and the master behind the setup.

He's (rightfully) quite proud of what we've managed to pull off.

So yeah, if anyone wants some advice on their own car, PM him, and he'll be happy to help.

The only caveat is that we'd ask you to make a small donation to Children's Hospital in return. (Again, links to donation forms are on our web site).

Good job boys! Car looked a little worse for wear at the end, but I was proud to see the Canadian flag finish the race.

Yep... that's the "incidental contact" that SPEED reported between AJ Almendinger and a "GT car".

We were that GT car.

Man, that "after" picture pretty much tells the story! By the way, Speed did give a brief shout out to "the all-Canadian team" at some point as I recall.
