[s-cars] Racing jack

[brian hoeft]

*It* is what Ed?

Great digging Chris, thanks! ..man that's a nice jack.

Lee, enjoy your belongings that you've worked hard to attain. Especially
during a warranty period if there is one. It would be quite sh*tty to use it
5 times in 2 years only to use it that 6th time in the third year and have
it fail.. I would keep the heavy jack handy though if youve got garage
floors that let it roll nice. Its not *that* heavy is it alice? :]
