Juliet got her first breath of fresh air off the jack stands and out in the driveway. Lots of little things to wrap up this weekend, but getting close to first start and go cart :)

Harry, that is great. You really will be ready by April. I suggest you run some autocrosses before track events.

I am definitely planning to do some autoX before I get out there in the HPDE groups. Although at least with running follow the leader in group 1 I hopefully won't get into anything too dramatic too soon. Not even mentioning the slew of things that need to fall in place even before I can get her out on the street...lots to do...lots to do... :popcorn:

And the black wheels should look great with the brandywine paint :)

Nice paint, will look great with the ally wheels, but black...not so much.

I'm with Wade too!! Those wheels have always been awesome! And they'll look good even on a car I build  :smitten:

Heck they'd even look good after Scott puked on them  :lol:
