Thumbs up Almost Ready

We are very close to running our Blue Beast with the new setup. We have made a lot of changes to the car since it ran the 12.02 @ 111 on a 1.57 60' at Famoso. This weekend, we will return to Famoso to test out the added parts. I just need to install the Simpson 6-point harness, the B&M Trans Shield and an oil change. Jenibella took it out on the street today to warm it up so I can check the fluids and look for possible leaks. The car really screams and pulls very hard. Everything checked out. For a list of the specifications, go to her website!

I would like to thank all of those that have made it possible to get to this point:
Chad of Tire Pros for figuring out the last minute details to run this car down the track safely
Jim of (ex)LeToy Motorsports for helping us to get the car running right and tuning some minor issues with the car
Ken from HPTuners for programming software support
Rob of Strictly Performance for the install of various parts and his special heads and cam setup
The staff at BMR for providing me the parts I needed when I needed them
