hey keith, looks your build is rolling with the best.  congrats, it deserves it.  but i donna know how long you're going to last at speed hunters posting motorcycles (which i would love to see more of), and tatted up rocker girls (which i don't mind either).  The Green Fly wallpaper is now my wallpaper.

And every time i look at it i kick my self, because my dad sold his 64 riviera a year ago for $600 (what he paid in the early 80's) and i had no space to do anything with it, or money.  My mom use to take my sister and i to school in it, and i always thought it was the coolest ride in the whole parking lot.  Ahh the missed opportunity.  Talk to your dad people, cause i don't think he knew i much i liked that car.

nice work.  Its always amazing to me how TV coverage hides all the elevation of a track.  Making everything look flat.  Only good still pics show the real truth.  Or being there in person.

Thanks again for this inside look at a place 99% of will never see.  I've been in quite a few Big Three auto plants, and the difference is remarkable.  McLaren's plant looks more like computer chip plant, than a traditional auto plant.  The pictures made me wonder how much of  the subparts are outsourced?  For instance where were the wiring looms constructed?   Or the exhausts, where were they welded up.  This is just the final assembly area, so we don't get to see the carbon fiber tubs being laid up, which i think they do in house, by hand?  What % makes the car "bespoke" ?

Not complaining, just curious. 

What was the labor force like?  Happy? or bored and pissed off looking.  Like so many Big Three workers i've seen.  The guys buffing paint looked happy, which has got to a mind numbing job. It must be fun to work in a science fiction movie set everyday.  I want to the video game Dead Space take place here.

So sweet, I need to visit japan, someday.  For now I just bought an RC Tamiya LunchBox, "for my son".  At least that's what I told his Mom.
