Just an FYI, I added a video of the Shrifter in action on www.TwistMachine.com.

It's linked on 3 separate pages, so it shouldn't be too hard to find. :)

Thank you. The Shrifter video is back up on our website (home page and gallery). If you're ever having doubts, just watch it. Tap a paddle and get pushed back in your seat. What could be cooler than that? It's a quicktime file, so if you have difficulty downloading it, email me for a .wmv.

I have a plasma cutter and a welder to fix that problem.

Finally got a copy of July Street Rodder. The press release is pretty funny. They re-wrote the release such that they will be UPshifting into a turn. Hmm... Very good otherwise. Free press is a good thing.

Performance is pretty good considering the old-school rubber, soft springs and "straight up" front suspension geometry. Note the feature cars in that issue are mostly 4L60E/4L80E equipped. Another hmm...
