    I think I have watched that video 50 times already. I still can't believe its finally driving. My wife even played the video this morning for my wake up alarm. So rad.

    Take it to the strip and beat it unmercifully. Please just make sure that whoever is filming gets the et and trap speed. I can't wait to see the 1/4 mile vid on youtube. Congrats on an amazing car.

  29. That blown Buick sounds awesome. I got a chubby.
    ...with that set up and it hooks up, it obviously will pull the front wheels up with ease.
    Thinking about wheelie bars?

    Sorry man, I was out and about today. I'll be there tomorrow for a bit and m-f all day.

    No, no wheelie bars, but maybe something on the rear of the frame to keep the rear fiberglass bumper and the chute from getting destroyed
