Project: "Do decent at auto-x" is in full effect

Hopefully next season I'll be at a fairly competitive level.

Project - Holy Crap!

Heads are done with Mac Daddy porting from Total Engine Airflow. Short block should be here this week. New LS1 timing equipment to keep the nitrous tune safe this time. LS1 edit by a local shop.

Looking for 460 rwhp all motor and 660-700rwhp on nitrous, 25 mpg highway daily driver.

Lighten the car up by 150-200 lbs, add roll cage, install 12 bolt rear, get ET drags out back with skinnies up front for the track. Want a 9 second pass.


Project money maker- designing a better nitrous system for LS1s. With the turn of a knob in the cockpit..go from 25-200 shot. After runs know exactly how much nitrous flowed into the motor. Shouldnt need a bootle heater or a nitrogen system. System will adjust for pressure difference on the fly.....even the pressure drop during the run.

Project get my daughter thru school and into a job of her own.

This is her last year at UF...unless of course she wants to do grad school. At that point, she's on her own anyway. I have survived the learning to ride a bicycle thing, the first date thing, the dance school thing, the will I get to be a cheerleader thing, and now...almost the college thing. Now, If she can just find a job or someone else to pay her bills, I'll be a happy dad. I'm already a proud dad, she's smart AND she's a hottie. I make good babies if I do say so myself.
