I'm a pretty damned easy upsell on safety equipment. :)

That said, I think we've got a pretty fucking good cage design planned out.

Interesting, I was there this afternoon, did not see your car, otherwise I would have reconized it I think.

Were you looking for this car, or my M3?

Yea, true; I probably did not notice the white one, I would have noticed to Topaz one. How long will it be in the shop?

Less than two weeks is what they said.

Two weeks? That must be a hell of a cage.

They're estimating ~30 hours of actual work.

Where do you guys get the money to put together race cars, and such? Oh that's right. You don't have kids. ;)

I don't have kids and I'm older than Nick but I certainly can't afford what he can.

Yeah, driving it on the street with no interior at all is pretty interesting. I did the gutting myself -- no sense paying someone for THAT.

If you're stopping there every day, mind taking daily update pictures for me? It's hard to get from K Street to Sterling during normal business hours.

It would be fitting if he takes pictures but then never offloads them from his camera.

It's a religious thing.

Kind of like my avatar.

Sure, but it would cost you ;)
