Tom's car is ridiculous in a good way! RWD, 600 plus hp. Good times :)

Who's doing the work?

Do you need a pit crew? :)

jenk12m Feb 14, 2009 02:46 PM

Tom, isn't it time for you to just buy a former Cup car and be done already?

Mikelly Feb 15, 2009 06:22 AM

NO!!!!!

No Cup car... THIS THING IS BADDER!!!hilarious

Tom, I love it man... You're my HERO! :D

Can't wait to see the results, and find out how much that monster (doesn't) weighs!

Looks great now! I was looking through my phone and found a day 1 photo of the camo project. It's amazing how much different a car can look in 6 months - 1 years time, to the point no one recognizes it as being the same!

SpeedYellow Feb 15, 2009 05:07 PM

SHWING!

Maybe a dumb question but has the wing gone through a compete wind tunnel dest by a qualified aerodynamicist in order to determine the value @ speed? Lovethe car. Just wondered how you decided on the wing given that a little too much wing can create unanticipated suspension and speed issues.

Repeat: Love the car.

Very nice.

Scott I know it looks crazy and I looked at many recent Cup cars before I pulled the final plug. but as many of us know once you HAVE a car and are really into it, it really is more cost effective to me with the current market worth of my car to just go the rest of the way. I have the car turning 996 cup car times now. my plan will drop another 2-300 pounds from the car and I will race it in GT-1. may sound crazy but fun as sh!t. and I love the car!!
if I had known I would have started with the Cup car but hindsight is 20/20:cool:
Mike the car currently the last time out at Sebring is wicked fast. will now turn sub 2:20 minute laps and for me at Sebring that is smoking!!
the cup doors and roof off and lexan windows will be it, then we will see.
