I've been spending every available moment working on this thing. Most everything has to be made and sometimes the dreaded do over happens. I'm shooting for a startup next monday but I won't be surprised if that is delayed by a week at most. anyway, here is a pic of an event I went too recently to display the car, some may have seen it on veeeeeeesixxxxperfomancedottttnetttt, Cheers!

Also, here is some pic of the n2o i plumbed.

WOW!!! Totally Wicked!

I remember one of the hardest part of finishing a new build . . . wanting to hear that baby fire up before doing a 2nd or 3rd check off to make sure everythings tight, filled, connected, etc.
