It's either PT or a Race car better decide now.;)

Screw it, before you even respond I'm just going to go ahead and tell you that you should have built an LS. :unibrow:

Matt

How about a new word here.... RaceFighter. :lol:

I am really going for a Hobaugh or Maier type build with less quality obviously and less modern but track purpose with occasional street car ability. I don't want full race car and would do many different things if that was the goal.
I have some other ideas for the aeshetics that will help separate it from this damn sea of Camaros.

I have ditched the dome piston high compression idea. That lasted about 10 minutes. :willy:

That's hilarious and pretty much spot on. One big reason I've shied away. The sound just ain't right.

I vote for the cereal bowls. :thumbsup: Your guy can probably make them work.

Todd got it half right BB:rofl:

Nope. It doesn't have to be one or the other. Many cars blur the line or tip more to one side without flipping. That will remain the goal here. I like the continuing challenge to negotiate that line as only I can view it. We are all different with that and one thing I enjoy immensely about this site and watching people make their decisions. Race cars are too predictable and almost boring in comparison (please no one take that the wrong way).

Cereal bowls it is. :thumbsup:

I figure that at refreshening time (maybe 2-3 years) I can then decide to add domes if I feel like it at that time.

Hey I gotta abuse my privileges once in awhile right? :lateral:

I am very much looking forward to all the friendly competition that is building up and will dramatically play out over the next couple years around here. :thumbsup:

I agree.....Once we all have running cars we might have the opportunity to get together :lol:

I'll bring my car down and let you have another look before you fall into the abyss. About to get "malleed" has affected your judgment!
:lol:
