Default Fresh for 2008...

Thanks to German Concepts (undergoing remodeling/expansion ) at Osceola, IN: Paul (co-owner, service manager) and young Nate (my main man and goTTzilla's Head Mechanic),

pictured yesterday at pick-up after updates/tweaks/mods for 2008. Thanks to Marcel , and special nod to Darren (calling in from a HPA installation in the Dominican Republic) for their real time communication with Nate in setting up the new ECU programming, tweaking timing adjustments, and some other drivetrain hardware modifications, and new custom reworked and modified rear KW Cup Suspension.

goTTzilla basks in the winter sun, after we return from a break in-shakedown run today as finally the snow and ice thawed. Car is even more powerful, just wicked....I'm excited about the new year and improvements, and pondering the Matte Black "attitude adjustment".

Default hmmm...

I have no idea, but the kids smile and give a thumbs up, while the guy with the Boxster seems to only let his wife drive (maybe its her car), I'm told the guy with the Vette has never had it over 85, the guy with the Cadillac CTS-V is pleasant enough and nods, and the guy with the Noble seeems to be nowhere around when I'm out.

I really don't give people's reaction much thought believe it or not, but my wife's best friend's husband is funny as hell when I take him out.

Maybe goTTzilla or myself are not real neighborly or seem outwardly intimidating, while we are truly just pussycats...oops watch the claws.
