After going over the car, I think 3200lbs can happen

Got ya, I've never seen one on a car before, that does look pretty sweet.

Although, it does give the car the side profile of a ford taurus

I like it, nice looking piece, and if it mounts to the body, even better. The one that eastside had if I remember mounted to the hatch, I could be wrong, but I know once that pin on hatch went on the car the hatch never got opened/removed cause it was a pita.

3200 can happen I'm pretty sure.. hell with a regular 8.50 cert I am about positive that I can get under 2900 with a nitrous setup, with an FI setup, probably 3100 maybe less, depending on what/where the stuff is located.

I'll need hatch access since that'll be where my water tank is.

I figured as much, fuel access too... which was my original concern about the ability to open the hatch.

This, is why I opted to just lose the 15 lbs off the hatch with a formula one.

gotta start thinking about aero forces when approaching 200 mph

I don't really have to worry about that, so I haven't given it much thought

Ok...I've gutted the car back down to chassis....starting all over again

Will be cutting out alot of things:
front seat bracket rails
most of the front dash structure
the inner panels on the B pillars
spare tire well
unused brackets
etc

will weld on tabs on my 25.x dash bar to mount the dash in the OEM positions.
Planning on a lightweight racecraft steering column
WIll be using a Painless wiring racecar harness

Thanks buddy. I'm blaming the debt on you now

(I was gonna do it anyway end of the month)

Once that's in there, next step is the motor, so if you're not careful Shawn will be too busy with mine to mess with yours

Yeah... but I'm gonna try to be that *******, and leave the bottle in the car and get it done that way.

Probably never gonna see the times you guys will..... but someone has to try

But, those of you that know me know how it is, I always have to try to do things the hard way.

Man I just picked up a new PT2400 IC last night. I didn't realize they are that big. Quite heavy too. I think mine is going to reside where the passenger seat would go, hell, I can put a back on it, and it would be the seat.

Looks like someone needs a sawzall or a plamsa cutter for x-mas.
