Great upgrades all the way around. Great seeing that Steve Morris setup between the rails.

Your bro did some fantastic work on the headers. Look forward to seeing this car at one of the LSfest events.

Also, good call on the Holley upgrade. Will give you a ton of great options for data acquisition as you push this car to faster speeds.

Thanks Greg... We changed the 4 point roll bar to... i don't know.. 10 point now? Lots of bars above the driver and roof, a pillars, removable door bars.. ect. My little bro was building cages for those crazy ass Pre runners, so we did mine. Very strong.. and very tucked.
I also use a different seat when racing Its a Recaro Kevlar Halo seat.
Lila has moved to shifter kart stuff (converted to electric). Hanging at the local indoor Kart track flagging races and stuff. WH knows if she'll keep driving. She's got crazy talent thats for sure. The viral stuff got too viral. I had to back off it a bit. Last video had 70 million views. It was getting pretty crazy. She makes a decent amount of dough license out her clips though. lol.

Thanks. Morris is local to me. Finally got to have him put his hands on a motor. Pretty excited to see its performance. Would have already tuned and put some power down.. but the Holley Dom just got sent out today, so no sense in tuning it, then tuning it again.

I know where you are coming from. SM is one of the best holley guys out there so it will be an easy setup once you guys have the system in place.

Look forward to hearing the results.

I've seen this car a number of times at Shift Sector in CA and it is a beautiful build that he isn't scared of beating the hell out of! V2 looks like it will be even crazier..... looking forward to more pics!

BTW- I had the LS9 88mm turbo silver RX-7 there. Coalinga Airport is a slippery track for us RWD non traction control stick shift cars that is for sure!

Yeah.. your RX7 is fast thats for sure. Thanks for the kind words!


I received the Holley Dominator package.. so looks like I'll be tearing into it over the winter. Thinking about going to the Colorado Springs Shift Sector for the debut.
