I have multiple conflicts on the weekend of the 18th. I think were looking at the the 25th / 26th. In relity it might btter if we come in closer to the end when al the real headaches surface. Lay a set of fresh eyes and ideas on it.
Or maybe your aLl done with your feet on the desk and do not need us!

I am currently on military leave, so I could probably come down for a couple days to help out; that’s if Ty doesn’t mind an Army guy working on his car! :lol:

I hear you and hope everything goes as planned we feel your pain as we have 8 cars to finish in under 2.5 weeks. The SEMA rush is on and we are feeling it. Can’t wait for the dumb show to get here.
Good luck

There are some things we won't get to complete like I wanted for SEMA. Like the full blown custom stereo and we won't be sorted out and ready for the Optima event unfortunately... But other than that she'll be done!

Would have been cool to see it at the Optima Challenge...but SEMA will work too!! :)

She's close to running now minus exhaust, (which I'm working on something really nice and shiney for the Pypes booth!), and some other little stuff. It comes down prioritizing the two weeks WE have left now... spending time doing all that little stuff that can add up/eat up valuable time or spending time cutting and buffing the car to perfection and carefully installing the trim/chrome etc. I'm focused on the car looking great and being ready to put in the trailer just two weeks from today!!
