Are you going to run the car at Englishtown or Atco before you take it to Ohio?

I knew that car looked familiar, as soon as I saw the Downpipe/Dumptube and rim/tire combo I remember it from when I was at buschur. Thats BAD *** man, I CANT wait to see what you guys do with it this year. Dave had this car on the back burner for awhile now so I'm excited to see what it does with some real attention focused on it. your only 4 10ths away from the #1 spot, lol. AMS look out!!

Well Pete, I wouldnt go that far. Obviously you guys just wanted to save time but their are some shops that DEF could not build a car of that caliber. I'm SURE you know who I mean

Let me know if/when your gonna be re-tuning this bad boy on the dyno or are you gonna leave it the way it is for the season? I'd love to see the #'s this thing puts down.

I thank David/Buschur Racing for making this possible.
Good luck with the car - seriously hope you enjoy it.

It is smart that you realize that Buschur is the best choice to make a fast car and you wisely just went to him to buy the car already tuned and turn key. That is a good move and shows that you are smart.

Here is the night we unloaded it out of Buschur's trailer. David, Thank You for having the car delivered to us by people you trust with your own personal truck/trailer. This was on a Saturday night as well.

Car fired right up!

Here are a few pictures as well.

Congrats on the purchase. Should be a very fun season of racing for you guys. How much was the car if you don't mind my asking? I am just curious as to how much one of these turn key race cars would cost someone. I am sure others are wondering as well.

I am sorry but David and I will only know. Understand this is not just an evo with a big turbo/ parachute/ slicks. It's a piece of history. First evo 8 in the 8's and still holds the trap speed record of 172.XX mph in the 1/4.
