Touching story for sure!

The lil boy had me almost tearing up cause I was like that when I was little.

Curious of the pedigree on that car, Looked to be Blue originally. Pretty neat story.

Yup! I was involved in the build! You see me in the background a bit. Let me know if you have any questions.

The father did buy the car new. It's an original B7 blue car, but a year in the blue was flaking off, so the dealership painted it black for them.

Is Christy Lee as awesome in person as she seems on TV?

Ive met Bruno, he seems cool as long as theres a camera on somewhere, but he seemed quite different in the pits.

This episode will air one week from today.

And Cristy is really awesome. I had worked with Heather before on GS, and she was a diva. Cristy was legit working on the car and doing stuff and she is really funny. I've worked with her a few times, and it's always been enjoyable.

This is one of my favorite pictures I've ever taken... Cristy Lee, Woodward Ave, Roadkill Nights, Two pre-production Dodge Demons, drag racing... and a rainbow!

christy lee makes the show almost unwatchable for me..


It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Hard disagree on that for me, one of the reasons I watch the show.

Not with a 440 4 barrel and the standard 3.23 gearing.
I doubt it even with a Hemi and a 2.76 gear. The owner spoke just like those braggarts at car shows. You know, those guys that spew lies that nobody calls them on.

She reminds me of the blonde mother on Modern Family.

Maybe, if it's dropped out the back of a C5A Galaxy at 30,000 feet....

Did the father (owner) live long enough to see it in person, get a ride in it, or did he never make it out of the hospital?

He just got to see the car outside of the hospital unfortunately.

If Bruno hadn't been a racer, he would have been a game show host. Joey hits me like he don't know more than one way to give it to ya. Chrissy works for me most of the time. Gotta try to catch this episode.
