I bet I'm not the only one who has a leg burn from the exhaust!
I knew the damn things were hot, but I still got a cobra bite!

Are you driving your roadster now, or still setting up? How did your paint turn out? Hope to see you soon.

Ouch! Is it on the road or were you playing in the garage. Only one truly is a snake bite, the other is simply a tail slap. :D

Don't worry it will heal in 4-5 weeks. These things burn deep!

Ha ha! Glad I'm not the only one!

IanG/KDubU, the car is almost road legal. I got my VIN, but need an inspection before I get my plate. That's next Wednesday. Paint turned out good, in the end. I've only driven in first gear at go-kart stage. Might need to drive more on the weekend.

Welcome to the club. My scar reminds me of the thrill of the first ride in the roadster
