I just watched the videos Frank. That thing is Awesome. Looks like a handful to drive, but a blast. Hefty torque curve coming out of the corners...

Outstanding car!! I got a chance to see it in person at SEMA last year, just stunning. The video at the drag strip really shows how nasty that engine is, sounds great :thumbsup:

We were having a weird accelerator peddle problem I could not figure out. it felt like the car was nosing over on the big end of the track, like the throttle blades were closing. As it turned out the 2 piece Lokar gas pedal was racheting and the throttle blades were closing as I went down the track. On the run in the video the throttle racheted until it finally just stripped completely about half track and I lost all throttle action.

What was happening was I was trying to push the pedal through the floor, and there was air space under the pedal. So leason learned. If you use a 2 piece peddle, put a stop under it!

Congrats Frank and every one at Prodigy! Car looks great and in my opinion, the pictures do not the car justice. It is even better in person!
