Looks like you left it in south central L.A. for a day.

Solo is good. I miss running. I Was pretty hard core for a few years. Need to get the Z back up and going so I can do a few events soon. Sucks looking at a race car every day and not running it.


Here she is at AAA speedway back in June. That was the last time out for her.

Here's mine, got the shell clean and a separate car with all the other bits for 1700, probably put maybe another 1500 into it, not bad IMO.
