    Chuck,

    Thanks very much for the heads-up on this treasure trove of information. I had stopped logging on to Kevin's adventures long ago when they stopped updating the site.

    I am always surprised how much of a bottle of good Vin Rouge you can go through while catching up on the latest postings.

    What puzzles me is how they can maintain the consistently high standards of their work with so much emphasis placed on speed of completion.

    What a tease, only a few photos of the projects! But I am sure there will be more. Kevin's work is an inspiration to me to not stop short of perfect.

    Is that Frank's car?

    As good a job as Kevin Jeannette does with Porsche vintage and restoration work, he's still a hard-core racer. While the Gunnar Racing website has been sleeping, Kevin started an ALMS LMP-C program from scratch and went out and won four races and the IMSA Cup with son Gunnar as the team's pro driver. This guy is no poser!

    Ahh Shucks Dudes!!!

    You guys are too "Kind".

    I ...........our team decided to not race this year to try and get projects finished (now some time for web updates). I does get a little bizzy doing the restorations and racing at the same time. I have great customers that TRY to understand we do our best to keep learning about current and don't forget about the past!

    I love the Early Registry and wish I could par-tis-a-pate more. The "General Posters" do a Dang fine job with the information that is passed amoung us..........I learn something every time I log on!

    Right now (2-10-11) my Son and some of my team members are at Sebring for the ALMS test, they have re-grouped with Core Motorsports car #06. Please keep them in mind ( rooting support) if you all are into the Sebring thing.

    Post on and on... and many thanks,

    Kevin
