finally got the exhaust squared away today with the help of a friend, who will be welding it up tomorrow hopefully. once thats done, the car is 95% complete. wires just need to be connected in the interior for gauges and ecu stuffs. shifter needs installed. brakes bled. fluids put in the motor. and then its go time. oh, and then to just finish up some bondo sanding before painting the car. PUSHING, hard to boot, to make it to wateriest next sunday, but we shall see.

only went 255 this time around. i THINK i may be able to get a 275 under there. but id need to get some spacers. hoping the 255 bfgs will do what i want, if not i may try a set of nitto's. after that, ill throw the towel in and just get a set of hoosiers for the 16" rota's that i still have.

Trying to get it done to run Sunday. Painted or not. fiddle sticks it.

Last year with the rt615s, me not knowing how to launch, no shift light, and me just sucking at shifting quickly in general. Car went 11.1@133. Next pass it trapped 137. In a perfect world, car coulda went 10.5's as it sat last year. Power wise it should be up a decent amount up top especially this year from the new cam choice. Realistically, idk what it will run, I'd like to run mid to low 10s on a street tire before i go to a drag radial. But we shall see.

If the car makes it I'll be in the pits near the lugtronic crew. If It doesn't make it. I'll be in the same spot, taking pics and filming.

thanks man, your 90 a few years back was quite an inspiration for how some of the body stuff turned out on this build.

Gonna look into those vibrant aluminum mufflers. Thanks for the info.

No problem. Vibrant makes good stuff. I'll hopefully have a first drive video sometime this week.

Nice work! The smurfle(nogaro) and pink make my stomach turn though.
