    I think everyone who has built one or more knows the feeling. Once you have done a few you realise just how much there is that can go wrong.
    I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....

    How true! I usually "sneak up" on higher and higher speeds after I first put a car on the road. When you think about it though, do you trust yourself as much as the guy on the assembly line who may be hung over from a wild weekend? We think nothing of jumping in a factory-built ride and hitting the interstate at 80 mph. Makes ya stop & think now, doesn't it?
