I am so proud!!!!
Way to go!!!!
I built the trans to "level 2" specs, B&M shifter.
Creative Steel motor, trans and diff mounts.
It did look like that cradle was dancing around like crazy on that one video. Get the hop under control, and 60fts. should be able to be dropped more.
Congrats again!
I really miss that car....

you beat me to it! haha
It is, but the next closest V2 was just pulley cam tune and removed cats on stock manifolds. There is still a little in it. Replace the subframe bushings with poly bushings and report back. I did a video of my car form underneath, and even with stock power the rear subframe twists around like an overcooked noodle.

Definitely going to look in to getting everything more planted and solid back there. This won't be the last you see of it, that's for sure. I'm going to run the 265s until I've squeezed everything out of them, then I'll get a tire size suited for something other than a honda civic!

I'm gonna focus on the suspension and driver mod as much as possible this season. Once those things are in order I'll bring it back up to you and we'll find a couple hundred more ponies under that chopped up hood!
Come up and drive it any time!

Yea…but...I had my A/C and heated seats on, old air in the tires, an un-aerodynamic hood, and tan interior is slow, or something!!!

Looks like you pedaled that car just fine. Gotta take care of that suspension and cradle.
