    Got a pretty tidy little seven page article in the April/May edition of Canadian Hot Rods. It tells the abbreviated story of how we came up with the concept of this whacky one-off wagon, the building of said beast and finally racing it. Not sure where Americans get such a magazine but it's available at every 7-11 and Walmart here in B.C.

    We'll try not to let it go to our heads.

    Good one, I don't think I've ever heard central Canada called the navel. Makes sense really. Unfortunately I have heard the Florida references. Sorry, CatModelT.

    Good point. Even the so called "bad places" have their merits and if you live there then you probably think that it isn't that bad, otherwise you should move.

    Its the geographical center both across from East/West coasts, and from the North Pole to the Equator. You can't get more centered than that!:biglaugh:
