How much of your current ride, did you build?

Hats off to the folks that build their own stuff, even if it's just assembling the components built by others. The more YOU do, the more meaningful your success will be !

If I were to "win" class with someone elses engine...win "best engineered" in a bought car...I may have gotten the trophy...but, it would be the same as getting a "Super Bowl" ring even though you watched the whole game from the bench. The win is hollow for me...I would give it to the engine builder...car builder....They earned it ! If you win the "Eliminator" in a bought car, good for you....if you build it, and then win with it your a BAD MAN. For that, is the ULTIMATE ! (my opinion)
