This is going to be ALOT of fun. I still have no engine in the car and have to swap out the tranny/diff. Crisis? What Crisis? I will be there. Plan on leaving to drive the 2,000 miles after Jan 15. You guys on the fence just do it you won't regret it.

Iceman,

I went by CT today (yellow car is there for swap out).


TT is in
Euro tranny is next

I don't think the 5.0 Hybrid (Kibort) will be ready. That's ok

You may more competition my friend, well at least someone to watch. From behind?


I'll keep you updated.......

So far..im signed up for Saturday..may do Sunday as well, but I will be there both days.

If the intake powder coating doesnt take too long, my shark may be there in place of the RX8.

Havent heard from MikeL in Santa Cruz yet..

Motor is back in the engine bay and bolted to X-member. Should be running by the end of the week easily.
Then just have R&R the trans axle and rebearing the torque tube. and will be ready for the trip over the Rockies and down the West Coast. I can't wait ,like Brian said 4 months is too long off the track.
