I'm going to put up a webpage for the car including a lot of detailed pics, right after NvsS. I did leave out detail here and there, I will add them as I remember them.

I can`t wait to see you run that car this week. You better practice on those lights if you want to beat Erics car.

Hey John,

I didn't see any cam specs, is it top secret, or did you just forget??

Or, are you running a stock cam on purpose?? I might have an idea or two that would help
