after years of work I just Can't tell you all how glad I am to say that barring any major complications we are FINALLY going to the track to make some hits on the car. I will say that it has been a long MF road to get here and hopefully all goes well. Thanks to those that took many hours of their time to help get here I truly appreciate all you have done for me. Mike Roth I really owe you a ton of gratitude for all the help with parts pieces and everything in between. Thank you with out your help and support I could not have done it.  I would also like to thank all of you that through the last few years have kept me going with the kind words and moral support when I could have given up. Jimmy

Good luck Jimmy.
It's been a long road for you and I appluad your determination through the set backs.
I wish you all the best on the track tests as you really don't need any more drama.

and you thought the BUILD of the car was hard?...  ...now the REAL work begins! Good luck to you, dont be in a hurry to make any glory passes......there is a lot to do yet...the fuel, timing, suspension will take a lot of testing.....glad to see it moving along.The data recorder is EVERYTHING. It will take a knowledgable person to interpret that data to make the neccesary changes. You can never have too much data. A good slow speed video camera will also be money well spent. Is Monte making the preliminary and subsequent tuning runs?
RIP Monte Smith

No Monte was tied up and unable to do it. We have Scott Filkins driving and Lonnie Houde tunning. Should be a ton of fun. I have waited a long time and by no means am I in any hurry. Just can't wait to see it make a pass or a few for that matter. Hell seeing it at the track would be a plus
