No doubt once he gets back from the fest, and there's more than 300 miles on the motor, we can turn it up a notch, actually launch her off the line and see what she'll do! No doubt a mid 10 is possible in the mid 130's. But not right now. :-) You guys have fun at the fest, don't break anything, and we'll see you when you get back and the handover wears off.
Corey told me last night his goal of success was measured by how happy the customer was with the finished product... Well, I'm learning that these cars are never really finished, there is always the next mod... And the next...,

That having been said, Corey, you are 120% successful on this project... I'll be around the shop often, to visit, to help out, and to take her to the next stage...Corey, Narc, Brent, Conada, etc... Thank you all...
