Looks like it's progressing nicely. Alot of work goes into a car like this, and your quality of work is really showing. Excellent job.

Billy, I've just decided that at some point this coming year I'll be taking a week of vacation and making a drive down to Georgia. I've just got to see some of this stuff in person and I'm sure my 7 would love to meet you face to face too.

Keep it up man, I can't wait to see what's coming next...

Hey Billy, that link doesn't work, do you still have the build pics up on your site anywhere? I just came across this thread for the first time in months and would like to see.

That 7 looks good Billy!

Any ideas if your exhaust will hit the market. You make great products and seeing a Re-speed exhaust might get me more motivated in upgrading mine.

I will reload them. We moved servers and no matter how much you think you plan ahead.....something always gets missed.

Longevity testing takes forever I really want to do some back to back testing, configure a bit of the manufacturing to be cleaner and such. The current setup is a bit loud for the street. Great track system. Do not really have an ETA yet.

Well we are ready for the trip.

I was not able to get the body work and paint done but the blue buffed out decent.

Congrats, but uh, aren't you a year late?

Good to see it all cleaned up. How 'bout some good closeup pics of the interior and engine bay? My wife just surprised me by 1) saying that she actually would like to see the car on the computer and 2) ... liking it! Nice job.

I will get some more shots this week. I needed to clean up the interior before snapping pics.

The color scheme is 100% by accident. We were trying to make a track day last fall and the front spoiler, header panel needed paint. I also had picked up the rear spoiler and it needed paint. So we sprayed those parts the eventual white that the entire car will be. The black on the rockers was just added to clean up major rock chips in the blue.

Trailer queen? The only reason I am bringing the trailer is so we have enough tools to fix your car throughout the weekend


BTW, The car ended up at 2136 pounds over all. That is with an almost full interior from the main hoop forward. No heater core. Corner weights were set withing 5 pounds of each other left to right and within 20 pounds front to rear (front bias)
