    After building two wildly popular/successful cars, this seems like the next logical step...

    Even I am surprised at the road we're thinking about going down in the future.

    I won't hint at where it leads but I will say if we go down it it will be an extraordinary adventure...

    Nice. Heavily (badly) photoshopped but a nice shot.

    Man, that's one ugly car - the Toyota, of course. What's with the balloon tires up front?

    It's the absolute antithesis of 4/5!

    Mr. Napolis,

    as a race face, i only have a rough idea of the monumental task that you have undertaken and it is obviously very cool. The amount of time, effort and money is mind blowing.

    it looks like you are having LOTS of FUN with the project, good for you..


    when i think of Ferrari i always remember..

    the good thing about Ferrari, it's Ferrari

    the bad thing about Ferrari, it's Ferrari

    when times are tough, it's always easy to figure out who your friends are..

    rock and roll...

    The rebuild is going fine. As I said Ferrari is giving us no support and won't even sell us parts so we're having to build our own but we'll be ready for our next test soon and will race again on May 14th.

    Not yet sure about the Evans.

    The truth of it is that these are very high quality expedition type jackets and making them in small batches costs a lot. We will also offer Polo Shirts and Hats that will cost less. These jackets can be used mountaineering and skiing. They are also part of a system of fleeces, vests and "skins" that provide warmth, rain and wind protection in extreme weather conditions. They also can be hosed off if they should be sprayed with Champagne.

    To be honest, I haven't asked for the price yet - I'm just not breaking even on basic living expenses right now so can't yet justify a luxury item like a team jacket. :eek: Having said that, I will make sure I find some sort of P4/5C item I can afford to show my support. I'll probably be looking at the hats or keychains or similar items at that level. :)

    As an aside, I really do particularly like that champagne-resistant feature about the jackets - it'll probably come in handy! ;) :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Although, I will be freed from University later this year to go find a real job at long last. I guess it depends on whether Jim is still selling the team jackets at Christmastime. :D

    :eek: Awww... David's being cruel and unusual again. :eek: Isn't this forbidden in the Constitution? :D

    All the best,
    Andrew.
