Looks and sounds great, when the car goes on it world tour I hope you swing by NCM Motorsports Park in Bowling Green, KY and show it off.

Okay, I'll ask. How jealous do y'all think Ron Sutton is right now as he lurks in this thread and sees the car getting its due diligence and what it rightfully deserves? This car is super nice right now and I'm sure he feels like this.... or this or this . I mean, I just saying.

Agreed. Ron mentioned the “timeline” more than once, and referred to it when called out on the mess he made. As a business owner myself, if I can’t make a deadline, I walk away up front. Not gonna risk my reputation for an extra dollar. Reputation is everything in any business. Mark it up with too much negativity and you have no business. Simple concept really...

Well — Jimi Day graciously allowed us to put the car on track at the end of their event today at USCA Las Vegas.....

This was not an effort to make lap times - it was just a lucky “get a couple laps” to see if the cooling system changes “work” (the same exact C&R radiator that Sutton blamed for the cooling issues) — and oiling system (same exact A.R.E dry sump but with the proper sized tank - and plumbed CORRECTLY) would work etc.....

So Speedtech (Jay Weir) took it out for 4 laps — a couple laps to warm up - get some heat in the tires - and let Jay actually drive a car he’s only just sat in....

3rd lap he did a 1:48 — only posting that because people will ask.

The shocks (JRi’s) will now come off and be shipeed to JJ Furillo for the very last undoing of the Ron Sutton sour sauce to be removed....
