For now it's twins but I hope to put Procharger on top of the list very soon. Terri has put a big number up but I think I might have something for her. It's awesome to see these cars getting pushed this hard.

Awesome car, just wondering why build a car to that level to have someone else drive it??

I was going to drive it. But, I found out last fall (well into the project) that my doctor would not sign off on the physical form for my NHRA Comp license due to a medical problem I have. So, I decided to continue on with the build and find someone else to drive the car. I was very fortunate that Bob Williams agreed to be the driver.

I see, well I hope that you can get behind the wheel of it at some point. That is one wicked SS

I want to say how much I appreciate the group of guys from IPS Motorsports, especially Tom and Jared (as well as many others at IPS). A special thank you to Stas at IPS for his support.

Also Bob Williams (All Pro Heads!), who drives my car, but who has also provided a LOT of other help and amazing expertise. He is the Jedi Master of engines. Mark Carlyle (atomicfusion, who not only helps with the car, but who also lets me borrow a lot of his stuff

and coaches me about drag racing. Patrick Barnhill (PTP Racing) who tunes the car. He is a mad scientist if I have ever met one! And Tomi Laine who dials in the suspension. There are many others who have also helped... RPM Transmissions, ERL, Aeromotive... the list goes on. You all rock!

We had a blast at the track yesterday even though it was cold and windy. I have a few images and a video, so I'll add them here.

And for those that have never met Darth Emma, she belongs on this long list of wonderful people also. She is a wonderful person, great passion for these cars, excitement about the sport and just a great gal to hang out with.

Great job Darth!!!

WOW WOWwowwowWOWwow!!!

That was amazing!

DE, I sure hope something changes so you get to run it like that. Seeing that "under construction" sig for so long only to see it done, built, and running and not being able to drive it. :( Sorry....

Still...fastest IRS 5th Gen. WOW! Smokin' fast!

2010SSRSM6 · 04-22-2013, 09:41 AM

OUTSTANDING!!!!!

Congrats DE and the entire IPS team! After all you have been through with this build, you deserve it! Enjoy the feeling, because you just put a big bullseye on your back and now everyone will be gunning for you. I'm sure that is exactly what you wanted huh.
