Congratulations on being an Ex-President ;-) I am the current president of the local SCCA Region (Land O' Lakes). I have gotten a few PCA guys to cross over to SCCA races at BIR. Shannon Ivey in his 911 and I run VERY closely on the BIR 2.5 mile course. I hope to see you around! Tom Fuehrer

Very nice space and cars - another cool setup in my neighborhood :-) I assume you are a Nord Stern member?

That is a real nice roll cage on that Chump Car ;-)

Jkaz - welcome from another Minnesotan. Great garage space you have there. Looks like South Minneapolis, correct? I'm a Roosevelt High Grad. Tom

Here is mine. It is a Worth rated at 7K. I bought it second hand a couple of years ago. It is a custom height model that that ended up clearing the 3rd stall of my garage ceiling by 1.5" :) I had it moved and installed by a couple of guys who have experieince installing these. The only thing I...

Have you connected with any of the local guys who have done FF cars? Let me know if you want to get to know them - there is a lot of good knowledge locally on these cars. I have been involved with 3 builds (one street car and 2 race versions). I was the body and paint guy. It looks like they...

Scott - that garage looks just right. Its come a long ways since I visited. Have you ever thought about using a Liftmaster 3800 opener? Your place is soooo clean that the overhead opener really stands out. The 3800 is a very clean solution. I put one in my garage last month and love it. There...

HIRISC, good to see somebody posting about something I am familiar with! The Motorplex operation is outstanding. **** and Bruno are first class guys. I have been amazed that they have continuted to expand during the current economic "oddities". For more information, here is the link to the...

Hi Mike! Your garage looks great - does it make the Honda any faster? Tom

I also use a SuperWinch, similar to Oldcarguy on my open car trailer. It has worked great, even to drag cars out of the mud onto my trailer. I would like to add a remote control to is so I can load a car more quickly. The process now is slow - winch, go adjust the steering wheel, winch, go...

Do you live in Minnesota? I was watching that table on CR for my Garage! Nice Score! Tom

Hi guys, I'm having a 2-Post lift installed today and am also looking at adding clearance by moving my garage door higher. I found this company that sells High-Lift conversions: http://www.diygaragerepair.com/Garage-door-springs-door-parts-for-garages-s/345.htm I have no experience with them...
