Shoot, I just may buy a plane ticket and come watch you run. At least I know things will get done that day.

Here's a picture of what I will look like when Allen finally runs his car down the 1/4.

don't encouraged him beefy.

I took in some racing today and will head back to philly this afternoon. A huge thanks to Crispeed and mike from awd. I had a great time hanging out with some great people. there is still a lot of work to be done before the car is ready for the track but hopefully it won't take too long.

What now, are you gonna build another motor?
Just kidding Allen, we are all looking forward to seeing you run soon.

I really shouldn't give anyone a hard time. In the past 6 years I've went through 3 chassis, at least 2 engines, a hand full of turbos, ECUs, transmissions, rear-ends, etc. and have never managed to put together a rolling race car of my own.

Can't wait to see it run Allen!

Allen, when you get her back home, what else do you have to do to get her track ready beside buying lots of clean underwear for yourself. LOL

Thanks everyone. I lack Injector cleaning, spool, fire bottle, seat belts, chassis cert, finishing trimming the quarters for tire clearance, moving the IAT sensor, setting up the chassis, front suspension limiters, and raise the back of the car/reposition the tubs to gain tire clearance. Not a lot of money just a lot of work!
