gadget, no worries I promise more surprises soon!
You were'nt kidding

A Stroker ....man, I'm sooo envious. I've been thinking about doing that for some time now.
Definately wishing you the best on this build.

OLT- "So chris, I saw your car weighed 8 lbs lighter at weigh in before the race. Was that the new CF interior panels you had put on?"

Chris- "Nope, two weeks of Diet Pepsi"

It's all looking good Chris! I was just at SP on Saturday. Tim was showing me his new turbo (your old one). And telling me all about your car.....but don't worry!! Your secret is safe with me...MUHAHAHAHAHA!!! Unfortunately i had to put a halt on my plans Chris.......as i hit a deer on Friday. That is why Tim took me to Sp.....so i wouldn't sit at home sulking at staring at my poooor SC!! Well i will be seeing you a lot this spring/summer!! I cant wait to see this beast on the track with your new setup!!!

Jon (Lex Luthor), I've walked a mile in your shoes or just call it a hunch You know you're always welcome here in Chicago!

Arizona,
I'll take pics of my fuel setup when I get some time. I'm running 3 walbros, 2 on all the time, the third will come on a trigger (boost level) and I'll be using another -6an line run to the fpr. Should be able to support my power.

Hey Scott, yeah, I just recently found out about that damnit. hahahhah

Dan, truly sorry to hear about your accident glad you're ok though

chidoks, no this isn't the crower crank. This part is my secret. And yes, I may try for an 8 on the 6spd. Let's see if the rps c/c is up for it

JspecSC3, majority of my passes last year were on a GT42 and a modded GT42. This year will be my first outting with the gt47.

Eric, it should look familiar thanks bud, and hope to see you soon! Lex is looking great.

Chris
