I must have really been absent from here lately! I like your new blue wiring!! I'm not much of a mod person, myself, but that looks awesome!!

what do you plan on racing in that? I don't think the base is going to go fast enough to require a helmet! J/K!!! We really need a new logo for this place. Just not exactly cutting edge. I'll see what I can come up with.

I was just messing with you! Good luck in the Auto X's. I've heard good things about vibes/matrices in the that area of motorsports. Quite surprising, being tall and all! Just another way to confuse the heck out of people!

Why you didn't use blue instead of red on the calipers?

well the under hood is on its own.......i dont have blue accents anywhere else on the car....u dont see it from outside the car and i think blue calipers look tacky....red looks normal.

Events are held at Gateway International Raceway in Illinois, not far from downtown STL and in Topeka, KS....which is west of kansas city....im at school in warrensburg so its about equal time to either location for me.DONT COME TO WATCH! COME TO DRIVE!! anybody can do it! If you ever have the desire to try, let me know...you could borrow my numbers (for the side of your car) and they have loaner helmets. Dont worry about the car....all you can do is hit a cone....the real flexible kind....so even if you go into a spin then its all fun and games! there are lots of real basic stock cars too.....even had a guy last week bring his lincoln LS....his business commuter.....a stock dodge dakota ran too....and there are lots of kids in go carts that run also.....tons of fun!WOULDNT IT BE SWEET TO HAVE 2 VIBES RUNNING OUT THERE!
