That is pretty cool. I think that wing would have helped yesterday to provide more downforce for the rear tires.

I am getting tired of the checker boards. That stars and stripes on a Japanese car is catchy :) though.

yet another reason that the eyeball scrubber needs to be invented. actually, now i need a brain scrubber to get the image out of my head.

it's like someone woke up one day and said to themselves, "self, today you're going to create one of the ugliest things to be unleashed on civilization. how about an obnoxious stars and stripes theme?" the rest, aparantly, is history.

you do need the wing though jim. if for no other reason, perhaps the added drag will slow you down a little. come on, throw the guys in ES a bone here.

Don't be surprised as the season progress, the gap continues to narrow.

I think it needs a few "Made in the USA" stickers to go with the paint scheme. ;)

This is the sad but yet familar quote at the bottom of the eBay info on the car. Apparently he was on the way to an event when it started to knock really badly. He parked it, towed it home and now it is for sale. :(

Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than a Kia.
