you seem to have avoided the question re: the norman in the background of one of the pics
if it was a secret you should have cropped the pic

I suspected as much...
What an awesome grey... will show up some of the red motor boys
I'm with ratbox on the boost though... 12 psi? Hope you're running a steel crank...
Can't wait to see your car at a Nationals one year EK61...
Grey Power!
