I don't think those wheels stick out far enough Jordan. You should at the very least be aiming to have them taking up the lanes on either side of the car as well.

Looks great Kenny.

It would look even better sitting beside a nice hot cup of coffee from a nice coffee machine?

Keep up the good work.

Well Egg we`ll see in about 2 months when this arrives - my new machine has the capacity of about 40 cups per hr!
How long you staying for!
It weighs in at around 17kg
here is a link to the Porsche of Coffee machines.
A 2nd hand one comes in at 4.5 times the cost of a RACER car.

Kenny,

Don't take this the wrong way but I'd rather buy the racer and drink the old PABLO or INTERNATIONAL ROAST.

You know really coffee is a bit overated. I prefer a special blend of sugar cane and syrup. Hmmm
thats good.
