I hope I have the same luxury once you finnish with mine. I think the 408 running through the PT88 should be fine as long as we keep the heat up.

It wont be another one of your 7 second cars though

Steve, Josh... Back on subject:

When are you guys going to run her again? What are you going to change on the setup compared to when you ran her last time? Just more boost? What fuel are you running through it?

We are going to run at the clash of the titans race here in houston. It is the weekend after thanksgiving. The only thing we are going to change is the boost level. We are limited to a 91.5 mm turbo at the clash. After that we will start testing with the 106 and then through the radials on the car

Now why would I put that small of a tire on when all the stuff that we race allows the 315. That just doesn't make any sense.
