Don't be surprised if the car is a lot slower at the track than you think it is. Many think their cars are fast, and they may be, but it takes a special set up to bring out the best in the 1/8th or the 1/4 mile. It takes a low gear, good tires, traction and suspension help, Good tranny and convertor, and other motor parts to make it rev faster and higher. And they all need to work together. I'm saying this so you won't be disappointed, but you can see where improvements need to be made. Good luck and keep us informed as to what it does and what changes you make.
to the board! Looks like a great car! I'd definitely put some shock tower braces back on there though.
