    I just received the new Pilota. As I an flipping through the magazine, I come across the article on the go kart racing. That was a fun event. I go back to the cover and look more closely, HEY I KNOW THAT CAR!

    The wing was the give away, but that will not be the case again. Great shot Andreas, and a great car.

    Thanks!

    You can never tell whether the editors use one of our shots for the cover, so I was very pleased when I got the "ready-to-print" preview. It was particular funny/ironic since most of what you see on that cover is now gone: No more wing and no more US bumper and soon (although not visible on the cover) a new license plate.

    BTW: The campaign sticker was made by a FChatter on here in the racing section. He sells them on ebay.

    This is a collector's edition. Not going to be one like again!

    Are you suggesting that your old plate is available?

    The last time I saw 'The Wing', it was propped up against a wall at Ed's; how sad!

    Also saw the U.S. bumpers shrink wrapped. Nice improvement with those Euro bumpers Andreas.

    Well, one thing leads to another: Euro bumpers don't cover up the exhaust as well, so a tubi is on the shopping list. Also the loss of all that weight front and back actually set the car higher. So it is time for a suspension adjustment and/or new springs or coil overs.


    Available as soon as I have my new plate, yes.
