Ya baby! Congrats man!

I was fortunate to ride in this beast a few summers ago...nearly s*** myself. After a 2nd and 3rd gear pull...I looked over at Dino and said something like...wow, I never thought I could get scared in a Protege. Thanks for the memories!

 

[Kooldino]

Thanks everyone for the comments, and to everyone who voted for me.

Special kudos to anyone who ever broke a sweat helping me make this car what it is today. I'm really proud to win MOTM.

That said, I really ought to do a proper professional photo shoot of the car this summer. Stay tuned!
