    OK, OK, OK. I get it. You don't believe that I have an Evo.

    I do have pictures of my Evos, but they are not recent. I just need to get out there and take some. They're both in the garage now, so maybe tomorrow I'll go out there and shoot some pictures.

    I'm thinking of selling the Evo 9, if anyone is interested...

    If you don't have anyone responding to your request, I'll send the cars to you. PM Me your address and if there are any other cars you're waiting for.

    I'll pass on the Macs, but just send me a cool sticker or something.

    Really? I wonder if the company did something to it to make the plastic melt.

    I'm in Houston.

    Yeah, the X is larger than the IX--taller and wider, but not longer. 300 lbs heavier, too. But, I still like the X better both on the road and on the track. It handles better than the IX, even with the added weight. Plus, the creature comforts are much better as well.

    I had the X up on the scales today at the track. Almost exactly 50/50 weight distribution left-to-right with driver in the car. I was pretty impressed. Of course, it's still 3700 lbs (with driver & fuel), and 60% of the weight is up front, so it's a heavy pig, but at least the AYC controls a lot of the understeer.

    I also got to instruct a guy in a Lambo Gallardo Superleggera. Wow. The problem with going in that kind of car is when you get back into your own car--you get so spoiled with that level of a car, it's hard to "step down"...

    I really want the blue bread box bad! I found a yellow passngasser and the Shelby super snake last night along with many others, but still no bread box yet. I also am looking for the white tyrrell, black fangula, red drag merc, and red '62 ford mustang concept coming out in B case (the one that came in white and yellow previously). Oh well, I'll continue hunting for it. I'll get it eventually.

    Well, not much action today, a couple of Lambos, a blue P4...

    Then on the last stop, a lone yellow 599XX Speed Machine!

    I didn't think I'd EVER see the new series, the race livery Mclaren was nice too, but I just got the 599XX...

    Inventory seems to be way down everywhere......

    I've been seeing the Blue Bread Box a lot. I only bought the 1 though. I've had to cut down my buying habits. So I only buy 1 of anything I absolutely have to have. So if it's not in my collection, I don't buy it. I even passed up the Black Fangula.
    I've only found 2 of the Red 599XX in the past 2 weeks. No Yellows yet or the others in the updated series that I want.

    I may not have seen it in the past or present, but does anybody know if Hotwheels produce the AUDI R8 on 1:64 casting? Not the Speed Machine one but I'm pertaining to a regular mainline single card. Show pix if they produced it. Thanks!!!!

    Also, Matchbox has the R8 too. Silver with a black blade, I saw one before I stopped looking in the aisles for HotWheels.
