So is this a flop contest? Should we even bother doing it seeing that it gets like zero traffic? I was trying to get some action going and see some trucks, but it looks like noone is interested.

Ya I am amazed at how few people look at this stuff and enter....

Rad, I completely understand the girlfriend thing..... Mine cannot seem to understand why I put in so many hours on this thing. Its only gonna get worse next december when I graduate and put it in the garage for the restoration/insane build project I have planned. She better get used to it! HA
