Not to bad actually, $1250 a seat

The recaro podiums I saw were $3800 each!
I agree I would have guessed more. Mine were $250 with the covers. Lol. Of coarse the new Holley Dominator EFI was $5000 so that makes up for the cheap seats. 😝 I pick up the new 3.0 DragPak Whipple from the factory next month. 😎

Does this mean MORE lights on, on your dash????o_Oo_Oo_O
Haha. I am so glad you asked! There will be NO lights on in the dash! Basically because there will be nothing behind the dash. πŸ˜‚

So best starting doing hard drugs to kill off a LOT of brain cells, and taking drama classes if you plan to be on that show.

Gawd I hope not!! Speaking of that thing. My trip home from the shop in Arizona to Utah takes me thru Vegas at night. About 20 miles north of Vegas (Past the Motor Speedway) on several occasions, I have seen a big lighted production of something on a road parallel to I-15. Huge generator lighting and a bunch of race trailers and cars. Access to is blocked at each end by police cars. I assume that is what’s going on. I never watch the show because I don’t care for staged fake drama and BS. So if β€œsomewhere” in the Nevada desert is one of their secret race spots then that would be it.

You haven't Missed Anything by not watching it. Basically this is the show. Some spoiled boys that never grew up, give themselves terrible nicknames, build a car or truck of some sort, then pretend to be racing illegally and dangerously on some roads. Thing is they have permits, not racing illegally, scripted words, very Weird fake drama, most of the cars are unreliable junk, driven by terribly untalented people who can barely walk and chew gum at the same time. If they get into a fight its over something really stupid, and the fights are not men fights, more like a couple of 8 month olds, they tug on the other losers shirt, or push them gently. They are way to hung up on tires, and have no faith in just running anyone. They never ever say how fast the cars actually run, because it would be embarrassing for them if people knew how slow their passes are. They bet chump change, and try to make it seem like a lot. Then the biggest loser of them all who calls himself big chief, is mostly trying to not cry, and hopes that a real man doesn't show up and kick his whiny ass. The concept could be amazing if done right, but it is so terribly done, that it is completely pathetic.

Is it safe to assume that you don’t like those guys a lot? πŸ˜‚. I saw some of it a couple years ago and concluded that it wasn’t for me so I really don’t know what they’re doing now. I have seen some of the no prep racing when it’s been done on a real track and there were some fast legit cars involved. The racing was real. But..... running what amounts to outlaw cars side by side on a 2 lane road with something like 3 feet between the doors is nonsense. They ain’t doing that for real.

I’m going to see if I can get those colored lights in the rocker switches overhead to go off and on like Christmas lights.
