Time To Let THe Cat Out Of The Bag
Saturday, March 08, 2008 3:09 PM
...well not really!!!

I don't post much but I've been a member since 2001. So most have probably have never seen the car before.





Missed all of last year due to some big changes. Here's what it looks like as of March 1st. The car is all masked off and ready for paint....just waiting for booth time. All the glass, fenders, doors have all been pulled off.


Had this done back in March 2007.


And the "prodigal" supercharger has returned home











Trying to get the car ready by March 29th for the DUB show tour in Detroit. If not, it will definitely be ready for HIN Boston.

the roof-wow, the supercharger-wow, the interior... eh... not my taste, to each his own though. but why on earth would you need so many screens?

Nice and clean, I think it could use a few more TVs though.

it's a show car... he looks like he is pretty serious about showing his car. that is why.


an as for comments on the car itself... i love the supercharger and tb, but dunno about the body kit and graphics... not my taste, nor is the interior, but it's a show car and i understand how it works.


On the other hand....you have other fingers.

Interior work is top notch, the pic doesnt do it any justice.

There is much more about this car.. you need to post more pics Aaron!

Why is "show car" synonymous with having lots of TVs sticking everywhere? Why don't show cars have George Foreman's stuck all over them or at least a freakn' toaster oven?

explain to me why a show car must have stuff like that.... my car is a show car and it doesnt need multiple pointless screens a body kit and graphics to bring home trophys. im serious about showing mine.... does that mean i gotta have stuff like that?

you clearly dont enter big national events do you? go look at the cars that win in wild classes in the big shows. not the local shows. and not the mild or street or stock class. im not trying to be a dick, but you realy dont know how they judge those types of cars??

well lets see, if we look at the shows hes going to, its on a much higher level
you need all aspects to compete at shows like DUB and HIN
and if you also look, the screen in the dash will fold in, the screen on the radio is a popout, the screen on the passenger door is a GPS unit, and the other two screens are on visors
SO, when driving, you could have all screens but the GPS hidden, which you wouldnt want anyways, so i actually love his interior because of that

This is the typical response we get from anyone who answers that question. "Because thats what everyone else does at the big shows."

Hmmmm and I wonder who promotes it? Maybe companies who sell the little TVs?

If I saw someone Mod a TV into the Top of a George Foreman mounted on a center console, then I must admit, that would be bad@ss!!

Just so nobody is confused, I don't think I or z yaaaa are critiquing Flipspeed, we are generalizing. I would have to agree with Tracer Bullet that Flipspeeds are more tasteful and well done than most of what we see.

definitely agree.

i just hate the stereotype that to have a show car you need to have big and flashy things. no, i dont show at HIN or big events like that, but you know why? because they do not come within 300 miles of here. i would glady show at them if they came around, to me its not about winning either, its about showing off your work and IMO you do not need the flash to do that.

and the judges? if their judging those cars on how many screens they have then thats just wrong. a show car should be judged on how clean and tidy it is, the presentation of it and how well taken care of and the amount of dedication envolved, it shouldnt be on what the judges like.
