You are asking a valid question. The rub is in "what is the goal" in this case. When Lee and I sat down with Dave, et al, we went off on some tangents - putting on the jackets, putting them on the model, talking about improvements in design. Lee would come back as the voice of reason, "Is that what you saw, though?" If the answer was no, then we were off track - easy to do. Does this make sense?

I think the final product is true to what we set out to do. I'd love to build a jacket with some technical improvements, but what would be the value in that? What would I be bringing to the table for the fan?Unless I could get Ford to wear it in Indy IV, it would be worthless, and those kinds of things just don't happen, do they?
