That's right, we'll be at the Challenge with a completely new ride. What is it you ask.... Well, since the car is heavenly, we decided to keep that theme but name it in the spirit of the Challenge and to honor the 25 years of GRM. So it came down to 2 names. They had the same meaning but were just spelled differently, we chose Uranus over Margie.

You've been beat by a clown, now you'll be beat by Uranus. Wow, it already sounds like a T-shirt design, "Beat by Uranus" or "I lost to Uranus."

Time is tight with this build, so Uranus won't be as pristine inside. But, Uranus will shine and run up front, not in the rear were most people would think you would find Uranus.

So, I let Uranus out of the bag, what's everybody else bringing????

In reply to fastclown:

Does Uranus shoot fire like mine does after some spicy Mexican food?

I'm curious to see what the clown and his band of indentured servants have cooked up.

You would think that with a name like poop, he'd be drawn to Uranus. Or maybe this year, they got nuthin'.

Having a fuel filler and a Mexican food filler might be a good idea. The stiff judges didn't appreciate the snakes in the tank with the 343, maybe flames coming out of Uranus would score some points...

Now the clown is talking about tight judges around Uranus. AND Flames or is that Flamers?! AND Scoring - no less!

Let the outright lies and blatent half-truths BEGIN! The Challenge is COMING!

Yea, I'm not sure where hostility and smack talk overlap here. I, for one, am interested in what Mike is bringing. I just wish he'd just be quiet and let Ronnie do the talking.

I've never been to a Challenge so I can't say much, but man, E36 M3-talking is tedious to listen to.

Mike knows where that line is and dances all over it. Thank you. I find his smack/E36 M3 talk witty, well thought out and not as personal, offensive and in-your-face as others have been.

After all he is a clown.

It's not just a career, it's a life style.

Take it easy, guys. The clown IS the only person who managed to earn an "I Got Beat by a Yugo" button...

Relax. Based on the last build, it will be "ready" in about 4 years.

Uranus needs a bigger turbo at a Challenge price. If anybody has one that will keep around 20lbs at 6,000rpm on an engine that's around 3L, please let me know what you have and how much. Hopefully the bottom end will hold together so we don't explode Uranus...

With Mini 50 trips I have about 10 weeks to complete it...

Sounds like Uranus is going to be a killer! It'll really be something to see Uranus in action!
