Paul you crack me up Being that I'm not single and that she isn't into to thrice married men with children I'm pretty sure I'm in the clear (I'll be nice )

Did Lucas finish the Lexan? I gotta call Jake today about something else so I'll find out where that housing is.

I think the abrasion between some of the others on this thread are officially put on the saint list after a comment like that... hahahah. Great build to you, Paul, Tom, and Lucas, and for sharing your projects. I feel obligated to buy you all a few rounds of beer. What some people dont seem to understand is Paul is not here to sell something, he's simply here to share his experience with us. He has his support, haters, nut swingers, what have you, but he's still sharing. I know every time I call Paul, he's willing to help us out, same with Magnus, Shep, and everyone else. It's all a learning curve. Some of us were not born with a laptop and 4G63, so we have to see waht works and what doesn't. Pushing the envelope brings problems, but they are just things that people have to work around. In the end, everyone will have a smile on their faces...

So Billy drove down to English Racing today.Took him 3hrs to get there. He used dry ice to pull out all the sound deadening Thank You Billy! we are guessing that it weight in at 30lbs

To show you guys how serious i am about this project ive gone from 243lbs to 228lbs in 3 weeks Ive been training boxing and grappling 3 times a week, Running 5 miles every other night than doing wind sprints the nights in between. Hitting the weights real hard also. My diets been right on. Goal is 200lbs even than im setting up a fight in 5 months here locally which i hope to fight in the 185 division.
Between me and the car we feel we have dropped 300-350lbs.
Goal of the car is 2400lbs



Ive been having dreams of power shifting at least once a week. Man i cant wait to get back to the track!

Some more pics of the inside of the car English Racing and crew have been doing awesome work
We are estimating that we are at 2400lbs. Got to get some scales to see tho
Got a car show Feb 15th than shooting for the drag strip and dyno here after that. With all the light weight parts and everything we have done should make for a fast year.

Hey everyone....


Paul, awesome to see the progress. Hope to see the car somewhere this year, as Im planning on doing quite a bit of traveling across the country.

As for the motor....kill it. Built it, and kill it again.....you can't have progress without lifting the bar we call a limitation.....

So keep blowing it up until you find something that works.

Gotta get back to work.

Oh, and its been that long...but Merry Christmas/Happy New Year to everyone....just in case I forgot.
