Default TA Update

Well we are not going to get the TA completed in time for the Texas USCA event. It's not for lack of trying. The West Bend Dyno guys have been working their arse's off on the car to get it finished. Hopefully we can get it out to another event soon. I'm trying to talk the wife into Daytona. Brad sent me some pretty cool updates to share.

The splitter was designed by WBD and came out great. Here's a couple pics prior to install and the finished product installed on the car.

We asked for a radiator close out panel and fender braces. The guys at WBD over delivered! They designed a great compliment to the carbon fiber inner fender wells, paying homage to the origins of the car and Albert's work from Carbon Kustoms.

We got the exhaust back from Jet Hot. They ceramic coated it in a high polished finish and it turned out terrific. The car actually fired Monday for the 1st time since being disassembled upon returning to West Bend after SEMA. Hope to have it on the rollers for a tune on Friday.
