Default Progress Pic and Update

I stopped over to see our good friend Jay to see how he was making out with the 2DR Jetta Race Car. The car was painted last week and is prepped for for the decals. Below are some pics snapped from the tight garage along with a little mpeg of a little sound.

Look for more details on the car and itself displayed at Tunerwar next weekend.

the car is running the 1.8l motor and we will be running in the smallcar enduro series and maybe the road coarse at englishtown with the NEETS tour series if coarse is finished this year. i hope everyone likes the car it is suposed to be a low budget car for the class we run but hey why not spend the dough and beat some fords and hondas!
