Ian,  Thanks for the heads-up, sadly I don't have Spike now that I have moved (cable guy had the correct filter this time).  I really miss the "MXC?" show.

I will get this next part out of the way so the other don't feel the need.

 :flamer:  :flamed:

p.s. I have only seen your show a couple of times (Aluminum Tub Jeep), but enjoyed what I saw.  It was way above my budget, but cool nonetheless.

I caught most of it, very cool. Why did you guys go carburated instead of EFI though?

Until this year, if you had EFI or propane, there was a 5pt. penalty

Watched the show, Ian.
I was wondering why Wyotech sounded so familiar, the architectural firm I work for is doing a project for them. I believe it is being built in Daytona.
Pretty cool stuff.
