Default Welds car

Seems if you are over 600hp
That is where things start to break
But with the new tire tech it takes more
toll on drive train etc

I recently lost 10 lbs so my car is now lighter

I just really don't understand why it takes some of you guys months and months and some even stretch into YEARS to get your car stuff done.... LOL




Powertrain is in.
Composite leafs have arrived - rear end is going in this week.
New corrected spindles shipped today
Shocks will be last thing to arrive later this week or early next.

The car will be all set up for you to pick up on October 16th.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Most of the cars on here are pro built.... and they're still years in the making.


But I do fully understand the dilemma which is why I put the LOL after my first line. I've been doing everything on my own for years now -- and I have to say it's pretty nice just making a few decisions and having it done!
