    Thanks gents.


    Sidepods, intake scoops, and deck alteration are all on hold as we continue to discuss F1000. Right now I'm pretty sure the car fits- with other stuff it might not.

    Sean- Car looks fantastic. It's kind of like going on the Parade of Homes tour and then going back home, now my car looks like crap to me.

    Being the manager of a BMW repair shop I especially liked the BMW Roundel on the nose. Are you using a BMW motorcycle engine?

    [size=2]LOL, no.... its a Suzuki GSXR 1000.[/size]

    [size=2]A buddy of mine slapped it on there- he works for BMW F/S and because of the Formula BMW (bike powered) he thought it was appropriate. I left it on because it looks a lot cooler than a Suzuki "S" would look![/size]

    Sean,

    The car looks better everytime I see an update. Look forward to seeing your posts on performance when you get out on the track this spring. Really, very very nice.

    Sean:

    Cars like yours and the others currently under construction are giving FS and F1000 a lot of respect and attention. I can appreciate all the hard work you and others have put into there cars and look forward to racing with you all this year. Keep up the hard work.

    Sean, beautiful car. You do nice work.

    Did anyone else notice what is in the background of the second picture? A porta-potty with the name "PIT STOP" on it. Guess I found that funny, but I'm odd.
