I'm not looking for that much. I waiting on some numbers from the Kraft werks, unless some exist that I haven't seen or maybe the the bigger sprintex one I saw from SEMA coverage. Who knows. I'm more worried about looks right now. I know I know @King Tut. That's the wrong way to do it. I'm not worried about winning races, cause I don't race.

I just read my commit. Wasn't meaning to be snappy. I just have a couple of guys in my close location that are just under 300. I'm gonna go for more straight up performance. Than looks. I love the way the car looks. Just believe that in the low 300 range it would be a beast of a sleeper, daily driver.

As for the track days. The two closest tracks are Circuit Grand Bayou and NOLA Motorsports Park. NMSP runs both open track days and NASA weekends which have their driver's education program that I graduated from to get my NASA race license and that @akuhei has experienced. I would love to see more local guys doing track weekends, and I am willing to do anything I can to help you guys get there including prepping your car or going along for moral support / crew chief. I haven't decided on my race schedule for next year yet, but I know I will be running Barber Motorsports Park with NASA the Feb 15th weekend if anyone wants to try out that awesome track. I can tell you that the DE slots will fill up very quickly once they open up though.

Who is this Brad with twin turbos and 330 whp? I think you might have your facts a little bit wrong.

I would highly recommend doing a DE event at NOLA through NASA. The instructors have all been excellent and the track has a lot of space in most areas if you happen to spin out. And the price is reasonable. I am more than willing to talk more about it or offer advice. I would offer to help set up..but tut is far more knowledgeable than I am on it all. Anyway, I would recommend everyone try to get out to a track at least once with an instructor. The experience is invaluable.

That's sounds like exactly what I'd be looking for. I'll have to look up the speedway and see what is needed for their DE program.

Brad is the local FRS dealer at Bob Tyler. I may have heard him incorrectly but I believe that's what he said his last dyno number was.

I'm obviously not red lining it constantly, nor at all. I have my RPM light set to 5500 and have been watchful of it. I'll be breaking it in properly.
