There are bad days, meh days, and good days, this was a Great day!
We need more Great Days!

The best part of the day was running with Andrew in the video above with his mother in my car going at it pretty hard for us. (we have a ways to go...) I thought I would have to baby it around a couple laps at best then she would call it quits. She didn't, I'm pretty sure she wanted to go faster. Next time we'll turn up the boost and see how she does.

I thought this was cool, My car in the pic above and my dads car in this pic in the exact same spot. I've spent an hour going between the two cars looking at the difference in the tire widths, the angles of the car, ect ect. Its pretty interesting.

Page 8 is gold. I'm currently fighting the 916 bumpers and trying to emulate the techniques you used with yours

At some point i'll finalize the bumpers.. For now, its all about the running gear. Fiberglass was just trial and error, work it till it works.

Trial and error is what I stand for! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I do like how you painted the bumpers black. It may look good against my future yellow tub, a bumblebee effect. Are they flat or semi black?

Semigloss out of a can. Works really good, easy touch up. I really need to touch them up...

I've got a few boxes on mine. But I just spent the weekend clearing out what felt like 100 amazon boxes (We prime pretty much everything...)

New Baby Girl Alina (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) She is 4 months old now (Shows you guys how much I update you all)...


Also I picked up my dads 944 turbo. Love the car, and its got a back seat for Alina. Im working through some issues on the car but they are all fairly minor. This car will see mainly track time and canyon runs.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) Precious! Little girls are for Daddy's to spoil. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) I raised 2 girls. Wait until you see how aggressive you become once they hit dating age. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Andrew,

Congratulations on having your little girl. She is very cute!

I have three little girls that are now all grown up. They love their dad.
Clean your guns when they bring home a date. You have a long time till that time. You are a lucky man. Father hood looks good on you or your beard does.

Just an experienced based tip for the future, Andy. When she's a teenager (sooner than you think), if she ever brings home a guy that makes you cringe, DO NOT follow your first instinct to grab his neck and throttle him! Instead, calmly go talk to the young man for a few minutes. Then go over and tell your daughter how happy you are that she finally found a guy you can relate to and become good friends with. She'll dump him in no time! Trust me on this, if dad likes him, it's the kiss of death! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Wow, what a little cutie! And I second all of the comments made by the other dads - I've got 4 girls and three successful marriages so far. I count myself a very lucky dad in that I've never been to prison... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Good luck when she hits 13 Andy! You’ll be handing her the car keys before you know it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)
