other guys are second best in one arena and make a big deal about it. AMS takes the evo platform further than anyone and barely makes a fuss.

congrats fellas!
Thank you so much, that was a very nice thing to say. We are very proud of our accomplishments and we are working on a more concise listing right now actually.

Eric jones (GSNT on the board) will have to chime in here but I think a low 1.4 is the best the car has gone. We cannot come out quite as hard as we want just yet with the factory ring and pinion in the T-case being so weak. Thats ok though because Shepherd is on the case!

Thank you again for all the support guys!

Eric

No ****! This thing is faster then the dragster roller coaster ride at Cedar Point and that's a magnetic ride!!! Defiantly takes a special person to do that!

Congrats all of AMS & crew! I’m finally happy to see the car out and about again Now that you guys taste low 8’s, I’m sure your blood is boiling to go out there again soon

There is now an evo in the 7's. It looks like it is running a skin over a tube chassis though so in my opinion that puts it on a different level.

APC EVO in the 7's

The vid is in the works. Rich is actually editing it now. We will have something up before the end of the day.

That APC EVO is crazy. Its is in an entirely different league though being tube framed, non IRS, alcohol fed. That should NOT take away from its accomplishments though. I don't care how you get there...going 7's is BAD ***

I agree it is quite an accomplishment, and what you guys have done has also been quite an accomplishment. Congrats to the both of you

it doesn't need a new motor. we just kicked off a couple of rocker arms. We actually had it fixed at the track last night. We just were not allowed to run again because of the cage.
