Default Xd Sema Car NOT DONE YET!!

Well, I just watched the 3rd webisode for Five Axis' SEMA cars and they aren't done with the xD yet! There are only 2 weeks left! Does anyone else see a problem with this? The ISF is still in pices! I don't think they'll be done in time! Poor Troy! The video link is below for those of you who wish to view the horror...

I'll keep my fingers crossed hoping there will be no other equipment issues. The guys there work hard and make great products.

When I had a little snag with my lip kit Troy personally took care of it within hours even though he had all that SEMA pressure already building up. My hat's off to people that work that hard.

I have to complement who ever is putting those webisodes together. They're cuts and sound bites are very good material in showing what's going on without giving away too much. Plus they're entertaining.

Default HAVE FAITH PEOPLE...THE PLACE AIN'T ON FIRE YET!

To all you Thomas's out there....Ever heard of Hollywood Drama? You don't actually believe ALL of those reality shows do you? C'mon...... the machine never broke, the IS-F is actually done along w/ the xD and my team and I have been in Maui all week sipping drinks on the beach and partying all night!

Hey, Zoltiz, my pleasure and thanks for being such a good sport also! I always say, nice peeps will always get my repsect...No whiners M2.... Nah, M2 is my bud too and is the most respectful gent I know......

Honestly guys, all you see is real and we don't play it up for the camera. Yeah the IS-F is in pieces but it WILL get done! If you know the FT-HS....if you saw that bad boy 2 weeks before it went to Detroit you'd have faith.....

Hope to see some of ya at SEMA. Come by and say HI. The xD will be a worthwhile visit especially for your NG Scion owners......nuff said!

These guys are pretty incredible, you are correct. They turn these things out in a couple of days. Trust me there is some great editing and the camera work is really good. I sit there and watch them film the "B" roll and wonder sometimes, "what the heck is he doing" but when I see it all put toghether, it makes sense.

Takes a good eye and talent and these guys have it, plus they are a really great group to work with.

I second the props to the boys at Car TV!

isn't it like this on every car show of teams getting ready for sema, yet somehow they pull it together in time at the end?

have faith in them everybody, they are just building up the suspense to a dramatic climax!
