Well since this was such a popular thread. I figured a race result would be in order. Doug had the pole and drove it to a first place victory!!! Running 1:47s which is pretty damn fast on a 9.5 inch tire.

Watched Doug go through the 10/11 combination in a nice slight drift. Looked sweeet. The old man can still hustle a car.

Randy,

Car looks good! Hope Doug didn't use it all up before the KIC next weekend! I need someone to race with! Were you ever able to make a video from the May RA race? If you did I would love a copy, that was a pretty good race!!

Nope just shaking it down. Got it back here and starting working on it right away. I haven't even seen the video from RA or this last weekend. After I pulled the setup out of my car, it's been is his car or at his house ever since........

He is ready to rock and roll again, double check on the dyno, set the valves and go racing!!!

1:47 in that car is pretty damn impressive. I see I have much work to do.
