Im goign to end this on Shelby is a great guy, maybe you guys should meet him one day. He's done alot for the world of motorsports, and for car guys like us in general. Yes there are others outthere that have made quite a contribution, Like the great John Fitch, or Jim Hall. and these are the people I admire. Like I said, I dont like drag racing, and stockcar racing us so bland anymore, not even I can stand to bare and watch it. I like Vintage racing, I like cars that were years ahead in technology, like the Auto Union vs. Mercedes wars of the 1930's, and the Fordvs. Ferrari vs. Porsche era ofthe 1960's that new ideas were coming out so rapidly, that in 1960, some ofthe fastest speeds recorded down the mulsane straight were 150-170mph, to when the 1970's rolled around the Porsche 917LH's were around 240+mph!!! Were on differentpages of what we lke. NJSPEEDER is probably the closest to me in my fascination with road racing cars, so I dont have alot to relate to you guys. I dont know anyhting about drag racing, and NASCAR I watched since I was 7, but since my favorite Driver isnt rolling full time, I gave up on it.
As for a better answer to WF's question as to why do I put money into my car then when its just some V6, thats jsut it, it's a V6, a challange to me. just cause im missing 2 cylinders doesnt mean im not competative. also its better on gas, and as long as I keep people guessing as to what my car is, im happy with it. I dont need to go 10's to make me feel satisfied. I feel the CS signature does make it unique, maybe to me, idk, apparently its not unique to you guys, so im sorry to hear that, but like you guys say, to each his own. my car is unique, and looks damn good being unique. Im sorry to hear your not good with Fiberglass workings, which is why I have two spare 4.1gen hoods in my back yard that I work on to improve my abilities with it as well, even tho I worked around that stuff for years. get the cowl hood, get some aluminum, and make that Turkey pan WBT was talking about. but what would be NEAT for ya, is to get a leftover hood from someone, and try to build something while your car is on the road, and when your statisfied with it, strap it on, and show us. thats my suggestion.
