She's .......ALIVE!!!!!!!!!! She's...........................ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well.........after 36 hours of thrashing this weekend the car is alive and running. We worked our tails off to try to get the car ready for the PINKS race on the 2nd. Unfortunately we decided not to make the race. Even though the car is running, we still have alot to finish before it is track ready. The short amount of time we have to finish the car makes it impossible to finish. I know we could do it but when you rush a job you can make careless mistakes and it can cost you a motor, trans, car....etc. We just want to step back, relax, and come back and look over the car and take our time on the rest. This will re-assure the car is done right. I can say that WE TRIED!!! Big thanks to the guys that thrashed on the car this weekend: Myself, Alan Marek, (Nitro)Dave Vassar, Charles Bourassa, Skizzy, Robert, Moe Bailey, David Clark (for letting us use his lift and shop), and the wifes for picking up lunches....etc. Stay tuned for the dyno session. |
Congratulations, pics and vids are a must when it's all said and done! :devil: |
Nice Job man! They are coming up here a week or two after that. I can't wait to see that thing done! |

Well at least you had the motivation to get it that much closer to completion. |
Well with that group of scoundrels working on it, I'm surprised you guys got anything done. Especially with the Curse of Moe hanging around. ;) Good to hear it's running, Tony. :thumb: |

LOL :judge: The car is the sweetest it has been in all the years I have known you.( It was already nice) I think deciding to step back and have fun again while doing the build is the best decision ever made. This car is to nice to rush the project and tear something up. Everyone helping on this build has done a awesome job and have deffintly showed off there talents. Good track Days here we come.... :) |

Best of luck to you |
Glad to hear it's up esp w/ the XFI. How bad of a install was the XFI and are you using anything off your stock guages. I'm ready to wire mine up this wkend. Who did you get your wire harness from? You are running sequential right as I see the trigger on the crank. |
Congrats man, this thing is gonna be bad |
