Hi all:

I made it to the US se7ens festival in Texas last weekend. I'll update my website with a full review. However, I posted this here because I have photos of my car at 95% completions. Obviously, the stripe is f cked, but nothing too hard to repair.

I'm anxious to know what you folks think of my US-based scratch built with a fireblade engine.

Looks like a quality job, love the colour! Good engine choice as well should handle like a dream with that rear shock setup, beats the bloody great gas guzzling v8’s you boys usually plop in! keep up the good work!

Very, very nice Chris.

I was invited to that festival by Gary Brizendine, but I wasn't in the neighbourhood. I've seen pictures though, and it looks like a great event!

is that based on a standard chassie, or is it longer? vids cool by the way, sounds great

Hi all:

Thanks for the positive response. I think it came out pretty well.

Marcel: It's too bad you didn't make it!

Ran: That is a standard book chassis up to the rear bulhead. from there back, it is BobC's suspension and my inboard setup. Those video are actually really bad because the car was running on two cylinders! I'll make some more this weekend.
