Default New guy 2013 XKR-S FRB Indiana

Checking in. Had the car 2 months, my kid got a "fender bender" with it, insurance totalled it, so I am going the mod route and going to make it a track car, and a nice day daily.

Thanks for the welcome and kind words! Yes it’s now time to convert it to a track beast and a pretty colorful daily. This is what it will look like when it rolls out on the streets again

Good luck.

The BIG suckers, no.

Very Close to Jim and the others though.

We have a smaller one reeking havoc, and are smoked out,

Jim,

We got one about 20K away as the crow flies, but we will be OK.

Your situation scares the crap out of me. We were caught up in the 1983 fiasco and never again in this lifetime for this old fella.

Rain would be nice, BEER is better, ya reckon Jim.
