Great job Evan!

These cars have appreciated significantly. Surprisingly actually.

But don't get too cute with the capital gains................BB is watching.

Evan needs to get a hi-rez copy and blow it up, frame it and put it on the garage wall!

Too bad some people have the funds to purchase race cars, but lack the skills to actually use their capabilities.

Sure would love to see some videos of our former member actually lapping a race course in traffic in one of his "race cars". Just because you can buy a race car doesn't make you a race driver.

It's sad that some people's identities and egos are defined by what they own. Take away their "status symbols" and they revert back to being the "little fat kid that gets chosen last!"

Interesting that when we all called him out on his misrepresentation of his kit car to the general public he sells it. Once he was forced to accept it as a replica, it was no longer useful in plumping up his ego. Thus, it's gone.

Just thinking out loud. I'm probably wrong.

Wow, don't think out loud.

I believe you are dead wrong. I don't know Evan but his decision to sell had nothing to do with this website. He is a car guy, he moved on. He also appears to be very successful at whatever it is he does. God for him. From one awesome car to another.

Not for nothing but I think you just described about 98% of the membership of this board.

I'm curious how you know he doesn't drive his cars on the track or otherwise?

I believe I remember Evan saying that he had attended a few race driving schools in the past...

Maybe Evan will take "Tigger" to the track or he could be just a "waxer."

And for the record, Evan also owns a Boss 302LS and a Boss 302 clone track car, but from what I've heard through the grapevine, neither one will ever see actual track time.

That website seems like an incomprehensible cut and paste mess. Was this a school project by an elelementary school student? It is hard to follow. The author thinks the FBI wants to hire him? I suspect the FBI does not need anyone who cannot put together a readable document. There is so much lack of explanation, like pictures of canceled checks with no explanation of why they would relate to anything legitimate or illegitimate. Or the part at the bottom about the friend finder hack with no indication about what individuals related to the car or saac are involved.
