Well first track day out I smashed it into the wall at about 110. I was running at Kinston Dragway on the lowest boost settings I could get out of it. It spun pretty bad and blew the cross shaft out of the diff in the rear.

So about a week after that I had it all back together with a new front end /tube setup. Took the thing to the DSM shootout in OHIO.

First test pass out it strips 1st gear out destrying the input shaft with it. Fuck it.. I build a transmission at the track. Get it back out for a test pass and at the top of 2nd it blows a brush out of the weldon fuel pump and the ring gear on the flywheel pops out.. WTF


After that I went to pa for some faimly time. Some friends and I fixed the car and took it out to pittsburgh raceway park.

First pass 11.4@13 just checking the car
2nd pass 9.9@150 On the junk ass trans I built at the shootout. Had to let out twice.
3rd pass. Shifter cable popped off somehow.


So fuck it I'm currently swaping it over to an auto. I have almost everything done Just need to get some Nitrous hooked up.

Video from Pittsburgh.
