IIRC, there is a style in Japan where they meticulously weld several beveled sections of straight pipe together to make curves. Can't recall the term for it at the moment.

That's a style? My buddy at Ballistic Motorsports has been doing all his stuff that way for as long as I can remember. Pretty welds.

"Pie Cuts."

Apparently it's because you can't bend titanium the same way you can bend steel. I always assumed it was just fabrication masturbation.

So that's what a naked racoon looks like!

I don't have a miata or a sunroof. I'll have to stick with the armadillo mod.

[sigh] Oh well, I'm not building a track rat, anyway, so I probably ought to be happy settling for the armadillo. They're supposed to give you a good balance of performance and reliability.

Samuel Jackson does not scare me. I have teenagers.

But to clarify -- am I supposed to take back my comment that I like the Juke. Or that the Karmann Baja Ghia reminds me of it?
