yup, i was almost 3500 last year, im hoping to be 3300-3400 this year. we'll see
two totaly different cars tho. so realy if we wanted to play a game of who is faster, i can come up with some pretty fast cars. if you want to compare apples to apples, get an ls1 you guys build and line up with me. then you get the advantage. the dealer cost on all the parts, and the oppertunity for a right off on your tax's because its a bussines expence. (shop advertizment) if you want to run 3.8 cars, i have a few that i would line up with you no ?'s asked.

I know about the opportunity for tax write-off because it is a business expense (Shop advertisement).

We don't have time to build anything right now. Customers come first, since they pay those bills to build our race cars

The question is how many customers will you really get with a race car? Maybe 1% of the market Build some real fast street cars that roam the street's/car shows and see your bussiness bloom

I think we weighed it in once in the 3500+ range. With George or I as a driver the car would have to weigh 2550 lbs to be in the 2800 range

So Brad definitely has the weight advantage on us.
hey matt, you might have to put my skinny 150lb *** behind the wheel

if you dont have time for a shop car, what are you doing with the TTA? that doesnt work on itself does it? if so let me know how, i'll buy one.
im not saying it to get customers, im just saying that if you want to build a shop car you can, and it can be part of bussines expences. im looking into having my company sponsor my car, we sponsor my cusons bush car, we buy him like 5 sets of tires and give him like $100 per race. it isnt much for a car like that, but for me somthing like that would be great, and we are able to wright alot of it off at the end of the year. we dont get it all back, and how many customers do we get with a 12" sticker on a car going 150 mph? lol

Oh, believe me the TTA does not work on itself. We find time here and there to work on it. We're looking into a few project cars now, but we'll see what happens.
