    Nice! If I come, I promise not to say the words "LS swap".

    Josh will almost certainly be there with his LS4, and Nick might bring the LS1. The 2JZ might be back too, who knows.

    Yeah, I know. Just saying that a DMC show on its face might sound kind of boring, as one make shows can be. But there is a lot of really interesting engineering on display if you have someone there willing to talk endlessly about it...

    When I went in 2016 there was a guy there that had made a completely digital dash system. It was a custom made screen that he built as an Android device. He could make any dash configuration he wanted, he mocked up the C4 gauge cluster, for instance. You could also play NES roms with it.

    I didn't post earlier but I think it's worth noting that the DMC I linked to is also already lowered, which is another costly(ish) mod completed ahead of schedule.

    Finding this car is almost like finding the Cobra in that regard.

    An excuse to ride my motorcycle out of the city.

    I always forget how small these are. I never see them against real everyday vehicles, just standing alone or in packs.

    No, this week is dragging like a mofo. Someone posted that and I thought it was interesting. I saw a picture a few weeks ago of one parked next to some Hyundai sedan and the sedan looked YUGE. The DMC is only 13.8ft long.
