Try right-clicking on the image to get a selection of processes. Then left click on "Properties". You may see the http address for the pic. Copy the address, and paste it here on a post.

Or send me a link to the site. I'll get 'em off for you.

Thanks! I'll try that tomorrow.

Off to sleepyby now.;)

Oh btw, I am hoping to rig it so I can tow the FF with the 85 SD. It will be right at the limit without brakes, 1500#. I love my dodge but having the capability to tow the autocross with something smaller has its attractions.

Very similar. I like the color. I am planning to do mine up in Black and orange. Maybe even an AJ Foyt commemorative scheme.

Wow looks like fun

That's right, I'd forgotten that the 85s had gotten new bodywork (and I think some suspension changes as well?).

Sweet!!

What kind of spares kit comes with it?

The color's not so bad. I'd replace those tires though - they're nearly bald...

Heh!

Dudes -- There's nothing like watching the rubber on your tires heat up and move around as you move through the turns.

Open wheel racing is AWESOME!!!

The upholsterer I have used is in to carting and he is 6’1” 205. He can give up fifty #’s plus in a forty HP class. When he came in 6th out of 42 the winner congratulated him.
