I enjoyed the article...definitely a nice write up...It can't be a bad feeling to be featured in a tuner mag...Congrats

I always wondered...How did they setup the photo-shoot and interview...Did it take several days...Spill the beans...

Well, Eric and I have known each other for a year or two.
He's a good guy to know.

I drove out to Blythe, CA for the video shoot very early one morning over the summer and we spent most of the morning on the shoot.
Then, we went to Starbucks to look at shots and talk about the car for a while and then he took it for a drive.
Over subsequent days I sent him specs and info and we talked about the content of the story.
He sent me a draft that I checked for any additional info I could provide and then he sent it off to his editor.
It took a couple of months for the mag to pick it up and here it is!

Very nice. It helps to know people. Love what you have done. Almost exactly what I would do if I had the $$$. In fact, this was one of my inspiration shots to buy the 8.
