Which track is this? I'm sure it would be a hell of a ride in your ZL1. :yum:

According to the scale the back straight is about 3/4 of a mile long. Love to see how close to 180mph I could get my car.:driving:

Maybe I don't have Forza. Not much of a gamer. However should pick something up that has Watkins Glen. I'll be going there in April for a 2 day track day/lessons.

I do believe the Glen is... Not on Forza 4? At least, not in the game itself, maybe downloadable content? That sounds epic though. Take me with you! :icon17:

Don't think it would be too interesting for you unless you bring your car and take lessons too.

It's expensive $$$$... they don't want riff-raff out there, and apparently only rich people aren't riff-raff :icon17:

Just finished washing the Acura. I think I'm going to install the forum decals on it and then install my start button :tup:

Pintsize725 01-20-2013 04:49 PM

I don't think COTA is in any racing games yet.

Washed the Xterra and cleaned the glass on the Z. That is all. :)

This is just the test button, so I'm not that concerned about the minor imperfections in the stencil. I will eventually do another one with more precision and go for that not-homemade-look.

OK I'm going to BITCH here. I know I never do that :icon17: The Barrett-Jackson Auction has officially auctioned off every single Ford Mustang ever made- twice. Against thier belief Carrol Shelby is not a God and Ford sux. OK I'm better now. :tup:

Very nice job. I doubt with the switch installed those "imperfections" are even visable.

Excellent job mr. JAR. How about a blue one for ms. pint? If I can find my original start button, consider it donated for the cause.

There was an s-load of 69 Camaros sold too. The Shelby fawning was a little excessive this year.

I was surprised the Green Hornet didn't clear the reserve. I guess Craig Jackson was just a little too greedy.

Craig Jackson is a tool. I cannot stand when he starts talking during the auction. I don't care how much HE thinks a car is worth. He does not act very professional during the auctions.

I am going to swap out the LED for blue for Ms. Pint. It should arrive next week. I am actually looking at doing several variations of the start button and would love to have yet another button to play with. If you were to donate yours, I would make sure it gets used for a good cause. And if you were ever interested down the road, I would gladly do up a custom one for you down should you ever want to replace your GT-R button (maybe red LED or white LED with button painted red). I'm going to be looking into fabricating a more permanent stencil than the paper one I did :tup:
