So, basically, the team now has members not alive when the first team joined us in Gainesville.
I didn't realize my first year (2004) was also their first year. I thought they were an established entity.
That shirt should have a picture of the sofa. 😂

They are the GRM Lynyrd Skynyrd
The last car I worked on there was 5 cars ago. I'm getting old!
FYI if the $15 shipping is kinda high, they can probably deliver to the Challenge next month.

Yup, pretty much.
It's hard to pick a favorite from that list, but that Insight was pretty impressive, especially considering how ungainly it looked when it first showed up. That may have been the biggest performance glow-up in their lineup froom where it started to where it ended up.

In 2017 that thing beat my supercharged Miata , and Ed Malle's turbo LS Foxbody by well over a second on a 35-36 second course ! It wasn't even a contest.
In reply to JG Pasterjak :
The year the Insight won the Concours was the year I was the competitor judge.
We (the judges) got SO MUCH GRIEF over that!
