Kurt,
First, good job. Second, I am probably the only guy here with a chassis car that might at least keep up with Casper. We could meet guys at Topeka or St. Louis, etc. and have some fun. Whataya think, Firebird against Camaro?

Thanks. We just stuck some parts together to try and run a 6 second pass at over 200mph with a gen3 production engine before anybody else did it. Mark, Con and Vic from Australia were getting really close to running the number "down under" with there production based 6.6 litre Ute.
Not really interested in racing this car at this time. We will be installing this basic engine in a 10.5 car and running Outlaw races with it next summer.

I was thinking that we could add some spice to some upcoming LS1 event, like the Thunder event in November. By looking at this year's poor race attendance, LS1tech could only benefit from such an attraction. Something to think about.

The cost of gas alone would kill the deal for me. SEMA is that week also, so I always have to fly to Thunder race to attend.

We would have to travel about as far as you would. Maybe we would get Thunder and/or the sponsors to at least pay for our fuel costs. It's too bad that SEMA falls on that weekend; bad timing.
