There is no way I'm getting my car done in time for the 2022 event. Between now and then I'm losing 9 evenings to build support at our vehicle assembly plant and 3 evenings plus a full weekend to Death Valley vehicle testing.

Which OEM do you work for again? I have a Maverick ordered so if you're working on that line, this will count as an excused absence.

Otherwise, sorry, we can't find anybody to cover your shift at this year's $2000 Challenge. You'll need to come anyway. laugh

I pick up the heavy rock and I don't put it down. Work feeds family, so work comes first.

Should we try to steal it and finish it for our team for this year?

Maybe you didn't want to know this, but the rest of us already knew this wink You will be greatly missed. Looking forward to racing our mid-engine creations next year!

Haha.  We already knew that.

 

Still, I like what you are doing with the car and think it will turn out great!

 

It has taken me 1.5 years just to get my engine set in place in my project car!

I clicked the up-vote on frenchy laying out his plan to make it before Angry does.  That's the kind of salt in the wound moment I came back to this thread for.

So can we bet on this?  What are the odds?  I'm thinking 2:1 in favor of Frenchy.

As much fun a F has been having building this latest car, with his new team, and changes in life, I really think he will make one, one day. 
At minimum, I'm sure there will be a car they built there!

No I decided that giving AC E36 M3 was more important than the reality of you never making the Challenge.

If you can make it down and want to be on a slow team, we can make some space.
