Hubba Hubba, what a looker. Glad you're alright. Happy birthday, shall I bake a cake for the detailing meet?
I'd like to do the interior this time at the meet, what shall I bring. I have Zaino cleaner and conditioner for the leather, Colin's plastic polish ( which I'm holding hostage incase the paint on my door peels off after he used some unkown substance on it, do you think he has a substance abuse problem )?

BTW, I'm condsidering buying a hot tub.

If you have one, could you tell me what it costs to run on a yearly basis?
Thanks

It started that way... so much road tar/rubber it was crazy. The guy tracks it pretty aggressively; he's got the weight down about 200lbs too (which is crazy since its light as hell to start). The inside is nuts, bare metal and carbon fiber, a steering wheel, seat, and shifter.

Picture time!
i'm surprised the track guys let you slip with braking the turning at the same time :P

glad to hear that only minor damage was done to the car, and that you're completely safe and sound!

Hah, I had no choice. Luckily for all the track guys as I neared the semi I floored it to get my rear straightened out again. If I wasn't in mortal danger at the time it would have been cool!

It's allowed but only with planned trail braking.

Hey Kevin glad to hear you're OK.
Sounds like your reactions helped keep you out of harms way.... great stuff

hehe.. I'll bet that Ferrari was done in about half your normal time,
with all that adrenaline pumping.

I wish I'd have taken interior pics, the interior on this thing is out of this world gorgeous. Black with white leather Recaro seats (which are this crazy awesome leather). I'll tell you what, I've detailed 10 Ferrari's, 3 Bentleys, 7 Porsches, a lambo, and 2 Maserati's this summer, and this stinkin' S4 gives em all a run for their money on the inside.







I wonder how the S4 manage to get down to your garage!!!

but mad prop to Kevin's quality and workmanship =)

Hah - the owner practically floored it into the garage, no issues. We did have trouble once with a *really* low IS300, but managed. BTW, it was great meeting you Godmans, I will have pics of your car up soon.
