I am the same way when someone ask me "what have you done to it" and I don't even have 1/4 of the amount or big power stuff you have. It really is a hard question to answer and when you do answer you feel like your speaking japanese by the blank look others give.

I agree! John's car is one of my favorites on the forum and I absolutely can't wait to see it in person and hopefully be able to ride in it. Bring some extra rags in May John cause you might need them to wipe my drool and "other" secretions off it ROFL
