Add Article To List
Tags: News

Community is a big part of our hobby. Friends (and sometimes strangers) help us out with our projects, inspire us, push us to work harder, and are there with congratulations when we finally hit the road or track. With many of us stuck at home and our shows and races cancelled, we need that community now more than ever.

Even if we can't be together at the show or the track, we can check in here and share our progress. Thank you all for sharing and being part of our community. Here are some highlights from the week:

This is my second love. The same year truck I had in high school, just now I have more knowledge and little more money! -David C.

My son bolting the oil pan on the hard way before installing the 283 into our 87 S10. -Jasen G.
