A smart looking build. Chrome wheels really pop on the white.

Somewhere in eastern Kentucky I think. Max Velocity is in Florida.

Bowman Gray has been officially cancelled. I live around 30 miles from the Stadium. We got between 6-8 inches of snow here yesterday and right now at 12 noon it is 26 degrees with a wind chill of 15. They were still trying to remove all the ice from last week's storm when this one came in. I think they need to move it back to Florida

We ended up with a decent amount of snow here in the Piedmont area of North Carolina. Darn, guess I'll have to build car models all day.

 :) Don't know about BGS WSNC.  The only NASCAR I keep up with anymore is the Whelen modifieds. 

Anne found Ryan Hall for us, and we watched him on the storm for an hour or so, and from what we saw it would be impossible to race at BGS.  Thanks for getting us to RH, but I don't know how much we will watch him, as we stay pretty busy. 

We have only had bitter cold this weekend.  We are thankful for that.

Congratulations to the winner :)  ..... I would have never guessed the Maserati.

  And thanks to Mark, I learned quite a bit about a genre of car that previously I only knew a little about....a fantastic work in progress! 


Thanks, Brian. I appreciate your interest in the build.

More major winter storms this weekend for the East coast and vicinity ....bomb cyclone.... is there any truth that NASCAR is still planning on running opening day Sunday at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston Salem despite the Governor declaring a State of Emergency and asking everyone to stay off the roads.

Ryan Hall is live as I type this (Saturday p.m) ....looks absolutely horrible out there...stay safe,stay warm.
