The BEAST is on it's way.

OK guys just introducing myself. I've been lurking on the forums for a while now and have finally decided to contribute. I currently own a 2nd gen. which is now up for sale to make room for the BEAST. I'm not going to give away too many secrets right now but here's a teaser:

9 second street registered 1st gen.

I won't leave you guys hanging, I'll try and get some pics up this weekend. Hopefully you'll all be hearing a lot more of me.

Kirk

Maybe a little bit of BS, I don't expect it to run 9s in street trim. Pics are on their way. The car is nearly finished, just a little more time to do a suspension and brake upgrade otherwise I won't be stopping too quickly.

He said it won't run 9's in street trim. This I guess is meaning that you will have the engine detuned for the street with street tires. But on the track, the engine will run at full potential and you will have huge slicks on the back end.

The BEAST is on its way (PICS)

OK guys as I said, here is a couple of pics.

If they work you can still see that I have a bit of work to do. The original front wheels are still on because I have not swapped the fronts struts and brakes yet. Other stuff to do is finish the interior and other many small things.

13BT, just the photos that make it look a bit smaller. Still work to do yet. EMS is getting an update so I can't even start it at the moment. Should be on the road in about a month (hopefully).
