You make some sacrifices to go fast. But, I can hop in the car and drive to Houston and back.....that's streetable IMO.

Can't make any new videos right now.

Had to send the Big Stuff in for some additions.

HAHA....that thing doesn't stand a chance....even with me on DR

He has a very small percentage of the HP I have.

ApexOnYou 03-22-2009 07:41 PM

Hence the "lol". Are you planning on running competitively this year?

mikef85 03-22-2009 07:47 PM

Not sure. The car is too light to fit in any real "class"

18psi 03-22-2009 07:49 PM

what size are the snails? (or snail)

And I was about to say: wtf kind of class would you even run in with that thing? LOL
It reminds me of that viper engined motorcycle, the hammerhead or whatever. A big ass engine with wheels attached

ApexOnYou 03-22-2009 07:59 PM

What are you running for a cage? I'm assuming you'll need a chute after the first run..

Note size of wastegate (s) and imagine why I would need that. That gives you an idea.

Definitely a fairly high HP build.

Haha, I have all the safety stuff. Note how well the license plate covers everything up though.

It's a custom chassis...down to 6.0 1/4 mile in a 3200 LB car....

I can run whatever the heck I want to.

messiahx 03-22-2009 10:58 PM

Holy shit man. Streetable? You should probably have a wheelie bar attached just in case you sneeze while driving around. Can't wait for vids!

Already taken care of. The wheelie bar mounts are on the rear housing, you just can't see it in the pics.


BTW, I have done all of the fabrication myself...aside from the cage work. Quite impressive for me to look back on what I have accomplished.
