well i am hoping to get back on the car soon.but finishing the shop is first priority.heres a couple of picts of this summers adventures.two days on the power tour.autocrossing and drag racing.dyno testing at the car craft nationals oh yea decided to try full drifting on the so small autocross track at carcraft.as well as the burnout show.that was kind of fun untill the internal belt broke in the case.just ordered a new belt,a super cool new impeller from 928 motorsports.hope to get the boost up to 8 or 9 pounds.

steering brakes,swaybars are all working great.

drag racing at union grove raceway.4# of boost on a 5.3 stock 4l60e tranny.hardly any tuning time.= 13.8 qt mile time with awfull 2.6 sec 60 ft times. theres alot of room for improvement.still happy with the times for only 4 #s of boost and 19 mpg at about 75.

this is what it looks like to drive home in the pouring rain with no wipers or heat and defrost.

What's the deal with all the sharpie writings on the car? I understand the concept of being different and not going along with the status quo, but man there comes a point when you say, what the hell.

I was going to ask the same thing. Who are all the sigs from? Spectators, other builders, sports stars....??
Cool concept for the car. Not too many of those running around with boosted LS motors in them.
Do you have any more pictures of the car while it was being built? Chassis, suspension, interior...?

Default whats with the signatures?

ok heres the scoop on the signatures I bought the car painted this way and my plan on turning this car into a super touring car with drop dead looks to boot. but after I mocked up the motor frame brakes suspension my plan was to remove everything including the body and start doing majior body mods. I decided to fire it up and tune the computer in.then after driving it for a little while being is everyone that knows me knows that I do custom paint assumed that i painted the car and it was done.The car is far from being done so I thought it would be cool to have people write there build sugestions on the car .there are thousands of build ideas on the car some good most not so good.but kind of o cool way for people to get involved with a top noch build without any money and no time for them. I just had such a blast driving the car over the summer I was not ready to take the body off. now my new goal is to keep the car driveable as long as possible. I plan on doing all the body mods to the car and drive the car as long as possible before taking the car out of service.and that my plan and I am sticking to it.unless my a.d.d. kicks in again.lol.
