Wow looking good! Especially that intake. It will be done in time! Just hang in there. I was in the same position you are about a month ago, but the shop got engine, tranny, and turbos installed in 2 days! Looks like your almost there. Can't wait until it gets fired up!

Wow, really liking those wheels.
Looks like they've made a ton of progress even with the v.cover issues. You'll get there.

And now there is another 1000 hp monster lurking, just waiting for the chance to make some unsuspecting driver shake their head and go WTF?!?!?

Sorry I didn't post sooner. I've been at Indy all weekend and just got home.
The guys at IPS are amazing! They got the car running and tuned it on Thursday night. They brought it over to the fest on Friday and we did some test and tune passes. Mark Carlyle actually did the driving this weekend. (I want a little seat time in it before I line up at the track for the first time.) On Saturday the car qualified second and it came in third for the V8 Unlimited Heads Up class with a best time of 10.067. The best trap speed was 143 mph. A few pics from this weekend... Here is a video of our quarter final pass. This was very much a test and tune weekend for the car. We think we can get quite a bit more out of it. We never got a really good launch.The car needs to have a transbrake installed and needs to have the converter dialed in a bit more. Also, they didn't get the boost controller installed yet. So, we ran at 12 psi this weekend off the waste gate springs. I want to add that the guys at IPS, especially Tom and his team, worked their butts off to get the car ready in time for the Fest and they did a superb job. I am VERY grateful to that whole crew for what they did to make all of this happen this weekend. I also owe Mark Carlyle a huge debt of gratitude for driving my car and for hauling it to Indy for me. He is a truly generous and amazing person. Last edited by Darth_Emma; 08-07-2012 at 07:51 PM. |

Had a great time this weekend... enjoyed racing your car... it is going to be really fast once the rest of the "little goodies" we spoke about are done...
I see no reason why this car won't run 8's once everything is finished up. |
