Anality about details is what separates a nice looking car from an amazing car...KEEPATS car is an example of that!!

I say do as much as your patience will tolerate because as it's nice to hear from the peanut gallerey about how nice your car looks it ultimately has to be you who has to live with the car and how you set it up.

I keep reminding myself that The Project is going to be a driver and not a show queen!!!
I want to be driving it by the summer of 2012 but we'll see if that happens or not

Rick the car does look amazing, so get out there and enjoy it!!!
