Just took it around the block (I have a damned 900 phone meeting) - love it.

Thanks to Bernie at Tomball for being so helpful in getting this. I originally canceled my order and he contacted me when it came in and let me know if I was still interested...

What took so long? Just kidding. Congratulations, after the meeting take the rest of the day off! Can't wait to hear your impressions. One request, please give SRTviper a ride or let him test drive it so he can make up his mind.

Oh hell yes, Harold!!! A long and twisted journey, kind of like the adversity one runs into when they start their own company. I know you can relate.

Now enjoy some long and twisted roads. I'm happy for you!

Ill post up some better pics later. Can't say how much I love driving this thing. Put about an hour behind the wheel so far.

It is really a knock out. Had a few people ask me about it so far - people love it.

Congrats on the awesome ride...I'm glad to hear that you're happy enough with the end result that the travails in between has been forgiven.

I suggest driving over 35 mph. haha

They are pretty stable, even at 150+ mph. :drive:

Force yourself to daily drive it for a week or so. Confidence will increase with more seat time.

Without a doubt. Anniversary dinner tomorrow 2 hr away, taking this!

Just trying to acclimate myself to manual again. I mean, isn't that hard... Can't wait to get it on the highway.

I plan to drive it everyday I possibly can, this is no garage queen!
