Whether you're in the midst of your build or on the fence about whether to buy a kit, here's a picture that should help motivate you.

Sure, sometimes building one of these is a challenge - especially if it's the first time you've ever tackled such a big car project. But, as you cruise down your favorite backroad at sundown on a cool summer evening, this will be your view.

Now get back to the garage and start working or get on the phone and order your kit!!!!!

Damn Chris! After following your build thread, which I have been using for inspiration, that picture makes me want to figure out the current problems with the body fit, so I can someday have that same view out my windshield. Thanks!

Very nice, or as we say in Boston: Wicked Pissa!

Those are the rides I'm looking forward to. Thanks for the motivation!

I am trying to find a person near me to talk with and maybe see there car. I will have my wife with me so she can see in person what I'm wanting to do and maybe get an appreciation for it. Is there any body in the Gwinnett county area in Georgia? I live in northern Gwinnett near the Mall of Ga. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Nice pic gumball! I especially love the Goodwood sticker. That was my local circuit back in the 90's before I moved stateside in '98. I lived about 5 miles away and used to take my GTD40 there for what they called "general test days" - for $100 you could use the track all day.. and often less than a dozen cars showed up! Man, that was fun. The Festival of Speed wasn't going back then, so I've never been to one, but I have fond memories of the track before it had all that money spent on it.

Great pic, thanks for that!

I am new to the forum and I must say I am totally impressed with the community. What a great way to encourage people to live the dream. Thank you!

I took my wife to the Huntington Beach FFR show. She saw the cars and met the people and bought in.

For those needing an extra nudge, click on this audio track and then stare through that glorious windscreen while reveling in the sound of power.

Now get back to work in the garage or call FFR and order the dang thing!

I put posters on the wall of the finished product, but I like the driver view better.
