bp-guy Posted June 26, 2007 Author Posted June 26, 2007 Thanks!! I am pretty happy on how it turned out. It comes home tomorrow so I will take more detailed shots and try to get a video up too. I will be taking it out to Ocotillo in a few weeks to break it in. Plus to see what rear springs to put on it. The ones on it now are just temps till I know what I want for a spring rate. It should look hot with the hood on it, I still haven't seen that part. Quote
Randog Posted June 29, 2007 Posted June 29, 2007 Right-on Tim. Beautiful car mang. Now I just got to get mine back together. And we'll all Quote

bp-guy Posted July 4, 2007 Author Posted July 4, 2007 I know I will get one trip out there for sure. Its hard traveling with the little ones that far. But for sure one maybe two trips. The wife had a good time meeting Pete,Anna,Jim and Chris so she might be up for the trek out there. Quote

You have no idea!! Last night I was in the car with my daughter in the garage playing with the Ipod and GPS. We drained the battery because we were in it so long!!!! Quote

mineurbiz Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 Very nice, if you get a chance, gets some pics of it in action. Quote
bp-guy Posted July 8, 2007 Author Posted July 8, 2007 (edited) Well I didnt get any pictures but here is how it went. AWSOME!!!! I unloaded it and took it down the street, finially got to hear the exhaust under a load. Went about 5 miles into the mountains down some old paved roads. Playing with the intercom and ipod along the way. Got the gps up and running to see the speeds. Managed to hit 88.9 on the gps but backed out due to the tires really grabbing hard to the pavement. My friend got into his truggy and we went out again and had the car to car system dialed in so we could talk to eachother.(I highly recommend getting an intercom) When I wasn't talking I had music in my ears. Took the neighborhood kids for a bunch of rides and they loved it. All in all I put about 20-30 miles on the car. Found a few things I need to address but nothing major. Can't wait to see what this car does in the sand! The torque is amazing. Laid a good patch of rubber on the street (60 feet) hit the rev limiter. The HIDS are sweet.

Mike Thanks- It was fun building it with Dustin. I am sure I bugged him alot with me running in there and taking pictures and asking tons of questions...but it came out how I wanted it and I am very happy with it. I am not sure about the night ride but we are thinking about the 25th of August for a quick trip out and shakedown. Quote
