I would love to have an in car video of idling then running through the gears normally and maybe a WOT punch, if you can hold onto the camera lol. I had my head set on a D1 but after seeing your build and doing more research I am leaning towards a F1. I read some feedback on Bobs website that the larger head unit stays cooler since its not working as hard.

Also i know with a 800 + hp car mpg isn't a concern just curious to know what you are getting.

I always like in car videos myself also. Gives you more of a raw feeling of the power the car makes.

I'd like an in car as described above as well. I'm Leaning towards an F1-A build myself and an in car vid going through the gears and maybe a 3rd gear WOT would be awesome...it's tough to get a feel for what a car like this is like to drive from everyone only ever having dyno vid's or 1/4 mile runs so something like that would be cool as there not that common. Awesome car btw.

OP,
It's just fantastic. You, your friend Nate & the rest of your contacts did a stellar job putting together something top shelf. I'm sure I speak for a lot of people when I say that, just from looking at the pictures, I appreciate the tremendous amount of thought, man hours, and dedication to quality that has gone into this car during the course of your ownership. You should be very proud. It would be a pleasure to get to look over this car in person one day, should you & the car ever make it out this way.

Did you ever address the 2 vs 3 mounting points issue?
Or did you just run with the 2?

I can't believe only two mounting locations can handle the F1

I just ran the 2 mounting points. Never had any issues but plan on inspecting the mount and block in the spring when I pull the blower off to change the oil and inspect everything.
