yeah!!!! haha! Man, I can't believe you are already up and going again! Does this mean I'll see you at Putnam Park Oct 2-4?

And I'm assuming the only time he drives it on the street is when he is breaking in engines, testing stuff, etc... That's why we have street FD's

I love how all the leading surfaces are pockmarked

Seriously, I am so sick of show cars....you have a nice tool for the track!

Need a new category in car shows- track cars, displayed with race results.

I am assuming you are still running the sequential tranny? That sucker must be loud on the street as cruising speeds. Car looks great as usual though.

>>You drive this car on the streets? If you do thats pretty crazy!!!

only to put on engine break in miles on the way to the track!!! LOL ;-)


>>I am assuming you are still running the sequential tranny? That sucker must be loud on the street as cruising speeds. Car looks great as usual

not exactly, is not sequential, its still a H-pattern shifting, I think you are confusing dog-box with sequential, they are different things, but often are put together. I have a dog-box gear setup (straight cut road racing gears with dog-ring engagement), but it is not sequential...I could not afford that yet :-) ... but I will at some point!!!!!...and YES, IT IS HELLA_LOUD IN THERE!!!!! especially with no helmet on and no racing radio ear-buds in my ears :-)

>>yeah!!!! haha! Man, I can't believe you are already up and going again! Does this mean I'll see you at Putnam Park Oct 2-4?

haha yeah i work quick huh, i have a nack of getting things up and running in rediculous time frames...but unfortunalty I proabbly wont make Putnam :-( ... for one, this engine spun a bearing ant the end of the day in testin (a story for a nother thread..lol)... and I picked up a project at work that has me tied up all this month too.

>>And I'm assuming the only time he drives it on the street is when he is breaking in engines, testing stuff, etc... That's why we have street

exaclty!!!

>> do you ever track at night?

not yet, but I would like to do the 25 hours at TH one day, and then I will be :-)

>>I didn't know there was such a bad *** FD in this frozen wonderland

hehe, yeah, it hibernates in the winters and come out to feast in the summers!!!

This is one of those times I wish I hadn't gone for the refined stealthy look with my car, and instead hung some flares, vented hood, and a huge wing on it.
