In my earlier racing days, if I won a race at the track, and I had a
sticker on my winning car, I got a payment from that company.

Yeah, I know...I just needed an excuse to post the photo.
The reason for the stickers/decals/graphics is sponsorship. My primary
sponsor is PartsForSpeed.com (Chris Lindh) with some help from a coupla other
sources. In many forms of racing, there's contingency money paid if you
have a parts/supplier sticker on your car. The higher you rank in the
standings for a given event, the more you can collect from each contingency
sponsor...like Comp Cams and MSD ignition. In my case, there's no contingency
sponsorship, just stickers to cover up the poor paint. :)

Hmmm...not like Monte Carlo? Like this one?
Those are my sons. They applied the parts stickies for me this morning.
Now I'm dealing with pulley alignment at the front of the motor. I think I
have it figgered out, tho.

No offense to anyone with a Monte, it’s a sweet car and I would be a proud
owner of it but im not a huge Monte fan( I do like the older ones quite a
bit though). Just thought it was a really nicely done one.
Having a hard time looking past some of the 68/69 chevelles on ebay, wow!
Ive also become a huge fan of the way the 80’s/90s Porsche 911s and slant
nose look, the wide body is pretty cool- id really need to learn more about
those as I have no idea with any of that- motors, models etc, the values
seem to be all over the place with those.
Oh anyone ever drive a Pantera? Too much for my budget but I love those
cars.
The girlfriend and I are going to go drive a few audi’s today, she really
wants to look into trading in her 08 Acura TL type S. Its pretty fun to
drive, but… she’s had it 3 years and put almost 30k on it so its gonna start
needing brakes and likely new tires soon… we replaced one over the winter
and it was well over $400 for one!!!
The dealer near us has a couple S4s, 2 A5’s and an S5, and Im gonna see if
the guy will let me drive the 2009 S8 (wiki says it’s a more powerful
lambo V10 with nearly 500hp) In my opinion- and im not in a place to buy a
car like the S5(she is lucky me huh J ) but that is one of the sexiest cars
out there today- should be fun!

Are you the winning bidder? LOL
That is nice. You sure couldn't build it for $14K

This Monte is pretty cool, thought you Monte fans might like it.
