This car looks like the car of my dreams. How hard was it to do all of the work on your car?

It's an never ending challenge LOL. Just when you think you are there something else comes out that you need/want. It's a lot of work to keep these cars going but when you win events and run fast times its fun.

Yeah it's going pretty good but a little slow. My cage is still being worked on because I'm going from a 10 point to a 25.5. My block has been built and is done and the head has been fixed as well, once the cage is done I will be spraying it and can start getting the car put back together.
