Good write up. I gotta do one too.

Man, I look hella fat in that pic. LOL!

Kevin forgot to add, that during the build up, we invented few tricks such as:

1. Stanning (quick picking the dynamat off the doors with a "cheezle")
2. Freedoming (ferociously loosening or tightening nuts/bolts with a "Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedom" battle scream)

We also learned the hard way to wear gloves when using exhaust wrap. Exhaust wrap + scratching your nuts = bad problems.

That was a fun project and it is too bad it is over.

Oh well, I guess I just gotta finsih my car now.

I wish I hand the money and the ***** to do that to my EVO. Ripping the interior out on a brand new STI is dedication. Looks good.

You never know. I have wanted to come up to Portland Internation Raceway as well as tracks in Washington. I used to live in seattle and my best friend there just picked up a Porsche. She wants to track it sometime and hopes that I will come up that way to do one with her.

Let me know of any track days this year that you know of up that way.
