I've had a number of white/silver/black cars so I went with a color (vs. shades of gray) this time (well 6 years ago ). Something different.I find it to be deep and rich, and still love looking at it. It limits what I can do with the car, though, since the more traditional colors are more flexible in terms of mods. For example, I'd love to do the blackwood because in and of itself, it is a nice mod. I don't think it would go with the car color though.

Glen,
Great job with the Dyno/Mini meet ! ! ! It takes A LOT of work to put one of these events together. Awesome job Glen !
That was actually my first official meet I have attended. Had a blast hanging out. I got there late and missed on some of the other CL members. But thank goodness for digital cameras some of you have posted some awesome shots, NICE cars guys!
Peace and Chicken Grease.....

Wow, it was nice seeing so many SC300/400's there.
Glen, thanks for a very well conceived event, you went right to the heart of it all, "how much power does....". Wondering how we do a "how fast did that thing go? event.

Can't blame her. Had almost the same effect on me.
