Welcome and very impressive ET vs budget. My project came about due to saftey reasons. I was be-bopin around down here bracket racing Jim Pancake's old Death Wish Cuda with a 1000 HP Indy 572, 8.80's 155 MPH on leaf springs. Car had not been updated in 20 years. It got back to Jane that it got a little loose one night so it got parked. "If you have to race, get the latest in saftey." Briar Rabbit!!!! As I see saftey features on the other cars, I upgrade. Holt will not do any car without a fire system. Master cutoff inside driver compartment (saw on Supercuda), pinned freeze plugs (Brooks and Bob Read). All that and ironically Impact belts are now coming out.

Good luck and be safe.
