Wow Ryan...I don't even know what to say about your PT Cruiser. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you like the Aliens movies more than a little bit. While not my style at all, I've gotta applaud you for the effort you've put into it as molding all of that out of foam and fiberglass couldn't have been easy! I would not want to be driving in front of you on the highway and catch a glimpse of that in my rearview mirror! That'd scare the **** out of me!

Either way, we'll be looking forward to seeing you there tomorrow.

Hey Alex, thanks. This car has been a dream of mine for the past 3.5 years. All of this hard work is really paying off, Audiobahn set me a few stickers....for FREE. The body work was all done by hand by myself in my spare time, which was pretty much all day, everyday. I quit my job for this project and poured my heart and soul into it, obviously. It is truly a work of art, I hope someday to get featured on AlienSkinmag.com someday soon. The car is very ferocious in person, Ive had more than my fair share of people actually jump when they seen the car, 1 older man fainted.

Luis, the K&N is in, made 2.4whp on the dyno, which is pretty surprising!

Ryan, I applaud you for your efforts. And for working outside of your comfort zone of the "Brick" medium. I am feeling the new hair cut as well. Very nice. I hope the custom chrome 6" exhaust tips arrived today as well. I can't wait to hear this baby scream when you neutral drop it!

Are you planning on bringing the wife and kid to tomorrow's event?

Glad the weather broke anyway..

HUGE turnout!

Seems like we may need a bigger spot (or show up earlier )

Good to see you all.

Great show and great weather. Alas, no Alien mobile?

Thanks again Luis but like we said, I think we need a bigger place. Just think how many people would have shown up if they knew how nice it was today.

Best regards,

Paul

I apologize to everyone who was looking forward to seeing my PT "Bruiser". With the nagging chance of rain and hail, it wasn't worth risking all my hard work. I didn't want my masterpiece to melt in the rain or get dented by the hail. Hope to bring it out on the next event....with some new mods!

Ryan

Great turnout for sure. I loved it when the bus driver came out and got all pissed because people just started parking in front of his bus. Like taking up 6-8 parking spots at a packed car show wasn't a big deal...

Anyway, it was nice to meet some more of you. Tyler, I love your RS6 by the way! I'll be posting pics in the next couple of days. See you guys again in July!

Just got home. What a great turnout, over 100 cars for sure. I spoke with management of the restaurant across the street and they said we could use their lot if it gets too full in our current spot. They have 139 spots and they don't open untill 11am. They also said that moving forward, anybody that mentions our Cars and Coffee will get 25% off of their lunch that day.
Thanks to all of you that made it out!
Thanks to Todd at APS for a great dyno day.
There were a few cool cars that were there:

Marty's Proto 996TT (It was aDynoject so he could not get it dynoed due to the AWD)
Bryant's Modded GT2 (Under the Knife)
Mark in a 360 Spyder (Did not dyno it)
Blue Ford GT (571whp)
White Ford GT (I left before they dynoed it)
AtomicZ's Z06 (547rwhp)
Camerons VW GTi (168whp)
E36 M3 (202 whp)
My father's 02 GT2 with a Gen 1 Fabspeed abd EVOMS V-Flow (457 RWHP and 433RWT)

Anyways, here are some pics:

Ruf BTR:


996 GT3 & GT2:
