I bought one of those car video recorders but have not hooked it up yet. I will get it set-up eventually and post a run at Palm Beach Motor Speedway.

Nicely done!

I like it when someone tries something different for wheels!

That is a work of art. Good luck with it.

I like that you modded the secondary mods to take the power like the diff and trans. Its not just a burst of power. It has refinement.

Tastefully done.

Thanks Spin: There was alot put into this car and I think I nailed it. Alot of the compliments can go to Jeremy Preston at HP Sales - he and his crew put up with my insistance that it be absolutely perfect. Secondly, there was alot of experimenting before I finally ended up where I wanted it to be. I have another 1200 miles (of 5000) before I can remove the Rotella and put Royal Purple in it; I am looking forward to that. Other than that it runs perfect. Brought it out yesterday, brought the tires up to temp., and was very pleased with the lack of spin in 1st - it was almost non-existant. 0-100 is a complete blur. I had 4.10 diff but dropped back to 3.73 and it is perfect for me. It will be interesting to see how long the Sport Cups last but I have a feeling with Michelin engineering I should see some good miles out of them.
