Anyway, Bennyz I haven't seen your car yet, but Dragon's has so much power it is scary. Definitely not to be underestimated. Kleemann surely built a fine machine. This race none the less will be the event of the year.

Maybe you can join me and Benny when we roll down there in Sept? That would be a nice caravan.

I can't wait for this matchup!
Hell, I can't wait to just see the car. I am going to have to evo-ize my 32 just to stay bus lengths behind.
Hey Josh are we still on for this Friday? Do you have any extra hellmets? I would love to be a passenger for one ride and maybe record some in-car footage.
Maybe, just maybe I can break into the 13'. Dam heat + elevation

Anyway, after you get your car back and if you have anytime let me know I'd love to check it out. I'm sure James would too.

Raw,
I'll keep you posted too once Benny sets the date or maybe he can both let us know. Can't wait for this whole Kleemann vs RennTech thing to happen.

Like I said before... let me know if you guys need rooms when you come out, I can hook it up.
BTW - I'm glad this thread returned to being fun and exciting to read.
