Previously I've used the car for NHRA and NMCA drag races, NASA and PCDA HPDE events at road courses and top speed racing at the ECTA. I'll continue to do those things and plan on upgrading the engine and transmission to run in the fast classes at open road racing events and Land Speed events. Top cruising speed now with the new 2.41 rear I built last year should be in the 150's MPH and I'd like to get up to around 200 at top speed events. I was limited to 135 MPH at Land Speed events without a cage etc.

I'd like to run the Silver state open road race and Bonneville. Will probably go to the Texas open road races first to get the new guy certifications out of the way since I'm way down in FL. Also I've got a buddy that wants to do the Targa New Foundland at some point.

My next track day is June 20-21 at Sebring for the full 3.7 mile course with NASA. Then ECTA in NC June 27-28 for a top speed event if I can get a fire suit before then.
