I don't know really. Takes about 6 weeks but that's with me working on real race cars M-F. Driving the grudge race car for some guys. Writing for my magazine and just day to day things around the house. I stay way to busy these days.

I had a pretty serious accident in 2015 and had to have my left elbow replaced with nice new hardware. Since then I have been fighting severe stomach pains and have been back and forth to the gut doc since last Jan. Test after test and can't find the problem. I'm gonna really lay off the work on the big cars next year. May cut my races I shoot down to half because 60+ plus races a year have really caught up with me.

James,

Its just the way the bumper is reflecting the light, not bent at all..I know you feel obligated to harass my Chevelle because "we" beat you at the 2009 Summernationals in round 4, but I forgive you.. LOL haaaaaaa
