Tornado MKII

Hey Guy's,

I'm going to build another GT40 now that the yellow car is gone. It will arrive early 2013 in complete kit form and its build will be logged here;

Tornado MKII - GT40s.com

I'm really looking forward to riding with the northeast crew next summer when its done.

Cheers,
Scott

Sounds great. I was going to ask why you chose Tornado, but that became obvious. Looking forward to following your build. I'd love to do a GT40 someday.
