OK, I'm going to work backwards a bit and give you guys the pay-off right away on this. Here's the photo set that went to ultimate buyer in Australia.

It shows where we ultimately got to with the car's development (although there were more steps in the works if we'd kept with it). So, there's some weird looking stuff that were really band-aids for stuff that didn't work on the car initially. I'll throw the pictures up and then I can explain stuff as a follow up.

My recollection is we ultimately got the car down to a 1:32 at big willow (I remember a '31, but I'm trying to factor in the optimism of time). I know that Ryan Flaherty and I both ran nearly the same lap time in the car that day. I did it in a fire suit shifting at 8,200 and he did it in jeans and a t-shirt shifting at 6,000...
