Default Meet "Bob"






Ready for the maiden voyage this weekend. Hopefully all wires are plugged in and bolts are tightened.

Gotta publicly thank the following folks...

Blake Meredith - For taking the only free Saturday he had in 6 weeks to help me install the motor and tranny
Mark and Julie Stewart (Kirk) - For not only the usual fantastic work but also putting up with my pickyness (and letting me help which is a GREAT learning experience).
Trever "T Diddy" Degionne - For his wiring mad skillz (Trever also wired Foo and Baxter's WC cars).
Sebastian - For buying the blue car before my neighbors complained about its parking arrangement in the back yard.

Scott, who says an ITC car doesn't have to look like an "econobox jalopy" (Yes Zsolt, that is aimed at you )

The paint looks a little funny.

Did you do it yourself?

Looks nice. I am sure it will fit in just fine with the rest of the ITC field after a wet weekend at RA.

Good luck to you guys this weekend!

Perfect paint job. I love the colors. I should be able to make it out to see it if the race is on sunday. When time will you be racing?

Somehow I knew you'd end up with the all-black front. For, you know, intimidating all those other people with your ITC car



Seriously, it looks good. Good enough that the other ITC drivers will make fun of you

A lot of flash - a little cash!

Welcome to the (semi) realistic world of IT. The new car looks great!

Ha! My first car was named "Bob".


A 1985 5-speed Honda Accord SE-i. 100 hp of fury.

Man, I miss that car. I hope yours treats you equally as well.

Seats are for rich ITA sissies. This is an ITC car.
some velcro on the floor will do the job...(works especially well if one is butt-naked) lol...

1st weekend...

2nd Place in the SARRC Race
Qualified on pole for the enduro. Finished in 4th place due to forgetting to put in the hood pins and taking too much time on the pit stop (Enduro rookies).

Not a bad first weekend. No issues other than throwing an alternator belt (which I likely forgot to tighten) and a clutch problem that was there before the weekend started. We only jacked up the car to rotate tires
