Welcome to our site.
Rumor has it one of the GMHTP guys is going to be attending the Pony Express 130 in June. Any truth to that Jim? |

Jim invited me to sit in his car two weeks ago. I'm 6'4" and felt like I was sitting in an Indycar; fully outstretched, just about sitting on the floor and I just did get to the pedals. In case he doesn't see this anytime soon, here's how he does it. With no rear seats, he's got a Kirkey race seat moved well back in the cockpit. The cage was custom done by Lou G I believe, and the door bars are fairly low slung. |

Geez....
The poor guy just got here, hasn't even made a post yet and he's already getting badgered. You guys are going to scare him away, most of you already scare me..... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Actually, everybody's just suprised to see that you found us. We didn't think that many people knew we were here, at least not yet. |

Welcome Jim! I enjoy the magazine! Can you give us some insight on upcoming magazine articles and future buildups? Maybe some suspension setup comparisons?
Thanks, Rob |
