    For those unfamiliar with Kessler Engineering, Matt's company has built some very fast cars including Greg Amy's Nissan rocket and my Honda Prelude. On his website, you'll also find a testimonial from our very own Jeff Lawton.

    I had been playing around with some web software to create a site for him, but I wasn't happy with the overall look. Joe provided me a recommendation for software that I could use on my Mac when talking about one my racing book's site, and I had to give it a try.

    In anycase, here it is: New KesslerEng.com Website

    Hey in the safety page is the SM cage legal for SCCA? It looks like it has an interesting bend in the top bar???

    Upgrade the wall thickness and you're golden Ray

    Site looks good! What program did you end up using? (too lazy to dig up the thread)

    Yup, it's legal. I believe he made some type of change to the design recently to make it even better though. Matt's friend is a big boy - it really impressed me that he actually fit into the Miata.

    Since Kessler Engineering is located in CT, I figured you wouldn't be too mad at me for posting this Scott. Why is it that I always want to use the cool blue bouncing guy smiley? LOL

    The funny thing is I used a program that was already on my Mac, I just didn't look into it much before Joe pointed it out to me. It is called iWeb. The one downside I've found with it is a lack of templates. The one I used for Matt's website works well for his type of business. The others that are available are either way too conservative for my racing book (yawn), meant for bars, or personal pics.

    Over the past several days, Matt has been in the process of moving into his new shop. It is freakn' awesome! In addition to having a huge area for cars inside the garage, he's also going to have a secret engine room. I'll have to include some of those pics in the About Us page too.
