The car is work of ART.(no pun intended)lol
Wait until you see the video, it barely pulls the wheels.
One other amazing thing, the car makes pass after pass after pass, and requires
no maintainance.No setting valves, no checking plugs,ect.
Basically add gas and go.

I would like to congratulate Tom and John for something truely amazing...
Not only going 8's, but doing it off the footbrake.

I think the magic was in the 'Jugger groove'.

Congrats again.

W2W did an awesome job on the motor, Hand down.

The motor runs cool, even pass after pass. It's amazing the first couple times out i thought the water temp guages wasnt working then i looked at the logs and was like wow it is at 150.

the only thing we do is check tire pressure and add fuel.

Vids and Slips will be up shortly.

Juggy you waited around long enuff, you needed to be involved.
