A dash cam would be funny. We plan on sticking the Go Pro on it when the weather clears up. Try to get a couple of good clips.

I want to see the NRE documentary they plan on posting Friday on You Tube. Sounds like it could be pretty interesting. Want to see which clips they actually put on versus which got sensored... I know a couple that will not be on the highlight reel.

Hmmm, that's not a bad idea... lol...

Great Vid.

Man I can't wait to see this car in person.

[Dangeruss]

Watched the video, and the car looks kind of slow. Have you considered adding an aftermarket CAI? Maybe even headers? Just sayin'.

It's time for an updated sig. Do you have any really good shots you can send me? I have 2 or 3 to finish this weekend, so I can put something together for you. Also send me a list of 10 or so mods you want listed. Impossible to list everything...I don't have any microscopic fonts on my computer.

You will...as we exit out of your garage and onto your driveway leaving some small 'souvenirs' on the surface... j/k We'll let Randy do that.

Yeah, my wife thought it was slow too - you can tell by the video... lol

Actually the CAI is a good idea. A guy asked me yesterday "what the heck is done to that, it doesn't sound stock." I told him it was a chip and mufflers.

I can send you shots of me mooning people on a bus - is that the kind of shots you want? I dunno. There are all of those studio shots. Maybe a good one will pop up over the next few days once we can drive around a little.

10 or so mods. Hmmm. Upgraded: Safety equipment, engine, controls, fuel system, exhaust, transmission, rear end, suspension, tires/wheels, "other" systems. Not upgraded: Driver

Heck, I don't know. LSX, TT, 38 psi.

We really, really, really want to but it doesn't look good at the moment. :(The reason is that a year in advance we book our vacation with our whole extended family and it falls at the end of July/beginning of August. Due to the summer dates of C5FestIII this year, it is hard to be in two places at once and this may be the last year with my father and that is of utmost importance. We are trying to figure out some options, but it is a tough one.

We had seriously thought about seeing if someone from Florida wanted to tow up our race trailer with the SST in it, but thought about the liability issues and didn't want that burden on anyone. It's no one's fault. Just a major date conflict. If anyone has a spare C-130 to chuck it on and go to Indy, that would work...

Let me hop over to the Airborne school and check.

Probably won't let me have one. This car will be at the next Pony Wars, right?

So.. since its done, we can expect to see another COTW right?.. Right??!

Nelson Racing tuned your chip?

Must be at least a 3/4 race cam..... sounded like an Erson on the vid

A 3/4 cam, headers and a BIG Holley...
