Can't wait to check your car's progress out! Saw it a few times at Mert's while I was dropping off parts for my engine build. My block just got back from RED and is at the machine shop getting honed, etc so hopefully I'll be back there soon!

So - are you doing Shift Sector in a couple of weeks?


Pro-Tip
Unbolt and remove the wiper arms before you run... Totally being serious. Wiper arms cause a huge amount of drag as air comes over the windshield

I very much wish. We were still waiting for parts for the motor a couple weeks ago and Mert and I had a talk. We decided there was too big of a chance the car wouldn't be ready...

And it's not. We are still waiting on pieces... Lots of little specialty pieces so motor is less likely to melt and go boom with long runs of boost...

Next one... May even have to trailer it to Texas mile...

I doubt it I was just over at the machine shop RBMS uses and saw a sleeved block with a RBMS tag on it so I took out my kershaw and gouged the crap out of one of the cylinders as a joke!
