Well sort of, he painted the 1/12 scale that I have. I wished he still painted them as he was the best as far as I'm concerned!!

Well guys sorry to say but I can't go to the Summer Classic/MORL race this weekend due to a birthday party that came up on sunday. I am not worried though I am doing my rain dance and am predicting a long hard rain over Lansing this weekend so that it has to be put off till next weekend.

Well, I can relate to the toe thing. You should see what mine looks like! I'm sure it's broken in at least one or two places, and is about twice the size of what it normally is!! But, don't fear it doesn't hurt all that bad and it's not going to hinder me Wednesday evening.
