Still much left to do... We are just taking our time and trying to do things as cereful as possible to avoid mistakes. The car can take way much more than what we are doing right now without doing further modification. Check this out this engine has over 30 passes and the thing starts faster than my daily driven TII... LOL...

One thing we must do is paint the hood... LOL... We had the blow thru explode a few nights ago due to a faulty boost controller and caused it to go overboost which made the damn thing go thru the hood... It was funny as hell... As you can see it is all fixed now with a new Innovative turbo boost controller.

BTW as I type the pan-americans (USA vs Puerto Rico) are taking place here in the island the only car left for the USA is La Pulga let's see what happens... Or if you want to take a peek at the local scene you can also go to agracingphoto.com there are videos and live updates from the track.

2 Rotors, just came to our attention that we became the fastest backhalved import. The previous record was 7:74 I believe... Let's see how long this lasts, the guys over here are getting way too fast!!!! I give this record about a week or two to switch hands... LOL...

More than 600 and less than 750... Honestly. 1000 HP is too much... Remember it is not having a lot of ponies that matter but applying the few you have to the ground properly...

I'd like to take a moment here and give my deepest simpathy to the family of a dear friend who got killed wednesday night in a horrible crash while renewing his NHRA license. We knew him as "Misito" owner of the fastest Hyunday Accent here in Puerto Rico "La Pulga".

Its crazy too how he died. He had the fasted hundai in the world doing 9.2 down the quarter & it was an automatic. He died in a grand national he was driving & the **** wasnt even his car but his last run was a 7.7 & at the end of the track the throttle got stuck & the car did not stop. Kind a makes u realize that anything ca go wrong at a track. My condolences go out to his family.
