Very nice! :tup:

Thanks Laurance for the great coverage!

_Take Mike DeTurck, for example. His Porsche 944 Turbo, judged under the typical criteria of cleanliness, perceived quality of installation, audio-visual enhancement and body-kit integration, is a disaster. None of the body panels line up, most of its interior has been stripped out and it’s filthy. But listen to his story…_

LOL

Wow, not an article i expected. I was thinking there would be tons of car pics and mine would be thrown in. I defiently didn’t expect any kind of write-up.

I find it funny that “BattleBots” made it in there. I was talking about how i first got into doing work with Kevlar and Carbon Fiber and how it went back to my robot building days. I didn’t think you would remember half the stuff that was talked about during my walk-thru. Probably because i didn’t know you were involved with a newspaper.

Mike, i love how your car is considered a “disaster”, that’s awesome.

On a similar note…

To look at this, it’s pretty impressive that of all the cars there (200+?), the NYSpeed cars had a great impact on overall show and quality of its participants. That’s great for the NYSpeed community. It’s just too bad the “[NYSPeed.com](http://NYSPeed.com)” was mentioned to help broaden our member base.

Thanks “the dude” for the work that went into this and getting it published. :tup:

Josh I only took the pictures - Laurance wrote the article - he is one of the best car review writer out there …

Check out the links to his other car reviews - I am the photographer dude… I take a lot of pictures - Laurance is the writer guy. 🙂
