One of the issues I'm dealing with now with the so much new and improved Mustang -- is that there are fewer and fewer cars in Green Group to pick on. The cars that used to pass me are now several seconds slower per lap... and following them - or dogging them -- has become boring. There was a buddy in a new Porsche GT3 car that was running Green this weekend.... and I dogged him for several laps - him pointing me by and me waving him off because it was fun to run with him and there was nobody in front to go catch.

I've got a pretty solid 250HP engine you could have if you wanted to make things interesting again....you let me know, I'm here to help buddy!
The back up to the back up is gone, the Lotus is ho hum and now the Mustang walks away from everyone, whatcha gonna do?

The car sounds wicked and looks like it pulls like a freight train! Glad to see its staying together!

The new engine builder has certainly proven his worth!! Another event or two without any issues and the Lotus will be finding a new home.

Yup........he's scared of it.

The Lotus requires a leap of faith, one that's data isn't measured........aero.

Greg,
You may want to think about getting rid of that backup
car... I had issues with my Firebird at the last two events...
Went back to the shop both times and loaded up the Pantera
and went back to run on Sunday.. It sometimes pays to have
that backup car
