Great pics and some pretty cars guys, nice work.

So hopefully, I will see more of you and Mike B out at the track soon

This was such a good start to a thread and now it's just a playground for king of the hill. I say the OP post some more pics to get this thread back on topic.
One of the reasons why I've always like Rick's car is that he refuses to go FI for the right reasons. A track car isn't all about hp. Braking, weight, and handeling are just as important. I would never go with FI for my car either, simply cause I don't have skills or the need for it on a track.
Following Rick's development of his car these last few years, I can assure you that he takes great consideration into every mod with one purpose in mind, making the car a better track car. I can respect that.
