Nice Mike! That looks like the real deal... race deck! I love my race deck, it takes some serious abuse and generally only needs Dawn or some other mild degreaser to get looking almost new again.

BTW, you only got a hangover because you stopped drinking!

I assume the chairs are for folks like me to sit and watch the pros work their magic.

Is the race deck noisy? Does a lot of dirt get through the seams?

Red and yellow do NOT compliment each other.

Makes very little noise IMHO, but yes... crap gets through the seams. It's not visible on the top, but I dread the day I remove the race deck. There will be a lot of crud that needs pressure washing.

You just have to find the right wife.

Mine wanted us to have a 4 car garage for the new house. She also told me that I would be a fool not to buy the APS twins at $1k off.
