We will get it up and running soon. Like I told Mikey in an email earlier...this wheels up stuff is loosing its "coolness" quickly. The dang MTI motor just seems to keep getting stronger and stronger the more I run it. Combine that with Madmans rear suspension, and No problem (Hooking) Raceway...and ...well you see the results.

Looking forward to another Shootout! I won't be running my car the night before though <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

I was in the pits and turnued around to see the under side of a black formula which appeared to be flipping over! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Sorry about the damage, hopefully you guys can get it fixed soon.

Holy ****! I didn't realize it was that bad, but I didn't see it in person (just the aftermath).

Hope you get everything fixed quickly, Larry!

Good Lord, that's the awesomest thing I've ever seen in my entire life.

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Originally said by me after watching that video:

I'd like to know the aftermath too, as well as what you plan on doing to fix it.

Unbelieveable.

OK - this video just scared me on any thought of spraying out of the hole. Oh weight, my car is pig heavy . . . .

Sorry about the damage Larry, but that is an amazing video. While repairing the damage, think about the joy you just brought to everyone <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Aftermath...

Rear fascia majorly scratched
Bent the hell out of the battery cutoff switch (actually supprised it didn't shut off all power to the car)
Oil pan with some major cracks.
T350 bellhousing has a big crack in it.
Brake line pinched...appears to have leaked
fan shroud cracked
upper radiator support cracked
custom ramair in front fascia cracked
k-member took a hit...but doesn't appear bent
can see where tops of wheels rubbed rubber wheel well liners.
otherwise car looks fine. At first we though front fenders appeared warped but they are fine...lines between body panels look straight.

I got the number a little bit ago of a shop that can check the car to see if there actually any bend in it that we can't see.
