Hey Malcolm... Your comment is actually very real.... and Dave's is spot
on.... Send Dan Warner a picture unless it's a bike then send it to one of
THOSE guys...... :)
I saw the MG they brought over and it wasn't even close to legal for any
class.... but they didn't care.. they just wanted the opportunity to run 3
bills.....
If I was building a car from your contry I'd build it any way I wanted....
who the hell knows what stock was any way?
Keith ( I'm sitting here thinking the Messershmit ( sp ) tantum two seater
would make an interesting Modified Sports car )
