8.5 and 9.5 +34ish I believe, not a track wheel though that is for certain. Tell brandon to buy them!

Par, I also posted your sale stuff on the MN g FB page and am getting decent interest. I am linking them to this page so you may get PM's... if that's cool.
Yeah that is cool, thanks man!

Travis text me this morning about some of the stuff with a tall order I would say I have interest in about half the stuff so far which isn't too bad for a day of being up.

You can get more money by parting out the car before selling it vs selling everything as is. His new car he's going to get is going to be one of those ultimate sleepers that only the car gods drive.

Greg explained it for the most part. Also, its just a bit too flashy, more of a show car then a performance car it looks nice, but for the money invested it really isn't that fast other then the great handling and breaks, just an overall heavy vehicle. I would love to keep it for a cruiser but my desires require money and I don't need 3 cars heh.

As a purist, I can see where youre coming from Par. And it doesnt surprise me, many will come and go, hopefully you'll still kick around the group and boards!

I fell in love w the vehicle and firmly plan on an LS swap to add the power later, as for now Ill drive the vq into the fugn ground, and keep building the rest, as you mentioned with balance I have yet to own a vehicle comparable on track between my old vette and cobra and still be streetable and flawless in aesthetics.

Nice label, Alex. I still think it would be cool to have a sticky label inside my gas cap cover that says "Unicorn Blood Only"

Forecast is looking better for Saturday morning. I think I'm going to have to make an effort to get there. Scott, want to cruise over together?

BIR has something going on at the MOA Rotunda this Saturday. I'm curious and wouldn't mind going there to see what prizes they're giving out.

I'm really tempted to sign up for that July event. Anyone have a link to it? We were talking about it this past weekend during the cruise.
