Paging Doctor Mikymu! Paging Doctor Mikymu!

I realize you haven't even got your cup out on track yet, but man... you gotta trade up already to keep up with the Jones!

do you do "hand me downs?"

My cup car is one of Thusly's hand me downs from Carl to Thusly.

Looking forward to running the new 4l engine at full song at Spring Mountain.

I am planning on being at Spring Mountain 4 days May 19 to 22nd. Full track. The "Red Cup" needs someone to chase (wonder if I could keep you in sight).

I think this might do the trick - 4.0, fresh PNMA build, 550 hp?

Thusly, Amazing RSR, Congrats! My brother-in-law has one (called Killer Whale, he races GT1 w/POC). He just upgraded it to the 4.0L motor as well. We just ran Spring Mountain together w/POC in mid-March. On the Saturday, I tied his best lap w/a 2:26.4 in my stock '10 Cup (that was the best lap of the weekend so far). He was shocked and the next day, he turned a 2:23.4! I couldn't hang w/that. That weekend, we ran a new 3.4+ mile set up w/a double right to left to right combo after the long straight into the front straight. Safe to say, he got the fastest lap of the weekend and won both races. He seems to be dominating GT1. Would be nice to see other RSRs out there giving him some friendly competition. I know there is another RSR in the POC. BBI does the support. But that guy only runs a couple events a year. Again, congrats and I look forward to the update after your maiden voyage.

All I can say to those pictures is wow. What a good looking car and engine. If it has 550 HP, that is incredible. Does it weigh between 2600 and 2700 pounds with 1/2 a tank?

I need to get some coaching to keep you from lapping me.
