Nice build man. I think I've seen you around the Plano/Richardson area. Congrats on the media coverage!

Thanks! Yeah you probably have seen me around that area, I'm always around there. Especially if I'm data logging during my lunch breaks lol

So I pulled the motor out mid January, but I've been so busy and my friend's been busy at his shop that we haven't had time to really work on it. It was at the machine shop for about 2 weeks getting the crank balanced and the cylinder block cleaned up. Then we had to wait on some engine building tools to come in since ours broke or people borrowed it and never returned it... But we are finally going to start this Wednesday. Hopefully it'll be finish soon!

I'm also going a different route with the body (again lol) I liked the VF fenders, but they were a little too flashy for me and the fiberglass just didn't sit well with me, especially with the big tires I have on there, I was always afraid to mess them up.. So here are the new custom fenders I have Jose making! They should be done by the end of this week. Also got a APR Front GT Bumper and some new side skirts.. I got one more surprise but I'll save that for later

The first 1,000 miles for break in were the worst!! I feel like this clutch is for launching lol

Yeah, ran this on my EVO 8... Wasn't smooth at all. Love your build!
