Redwarf Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 *sigh* It reads like I'm knocking you, but I'm not. I like the work you do, I like the initiative. But if you want to be taken seriously, the presentation needs a whole lot of work. Case in point is an escort I did a fair bit of work on. We turreted the rear end, custom trans tunnel, boxed the rear floor for a 4 link rear. By the time it was finished, it looked factory. This thing gets attention for all the right reasons. Whether it's the Corolla, the V8 Super Dinosaur or the F-truck, you're level of presentation should be the same. Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Posted June 27, 2011 haha that is slow only had 3rd gear stick broke off Quote
Redwarf Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 I stand corrected on the super taxi, and withdraw previous comment. However, comments on presentation stand. Quote

Mitch-12 Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Posted June 27, 2011 i like khanacross its relaxed and in my home town and 5 mins up the road from my house but the supercar is more fun at winton and wakefield and I'm racing it next year in the national super TT championship Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Posted June 27, 2011 and the competitiveness (is that a word?) between me and rob is so much fun last khanacross we were within 1 tenth of a second overall Quote
Redwarf Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 And that's great, really it is. And things like motorkhanas and khanacrosses give you an excellent grounding. More people should do them. But you're not getting what I'm trying to tell you. Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 27, 2011 Author Report Posted June 27, 2011 that my car is an ugly piece of shit? or something else? haha ugly i agree with panel wise piece of shit i also agree Quote

ke70dave Posted June 27, 2011 Report Posted June 27, 2011 i think i tend to agree with mr redwarf...... some cool work here, but far out i would have started with a less beat up car!!! especially with all the custom weld in stuff. not all that easy to re shell features like that. some pretty cool stuff though, that watts link is cool, and love the muffler box! not so much love the welds on the muffler box...but hey if it works...
