The beast!!!

Big Daddy · 12-01-2002, 12:13 PM

Congrats Will! I can't wait to see this beast run in person. I'm planning to come to the VIR event in Febuary. Are you going to run? Who else is planning on the NASA VIR event then?

Well, after getting a ride in Will's MONSTER, I can assure everyone that is it is going to be VERY VERY quick. Besides that fact that it will twist higher rpms than a mod motor, it makes GOBS of power and sounds nothing shorter than a Winston Cup car. It's VERY LOUD!!! The best word to describe it is "violent". I have never been in a more powerful car. No - Viper I've ridden in has much brute force. It's simply awesome.

The attention to detail that Will put into this car is impressive. It looks good. All of the work on the car was done very nicely. You can tell a LOT of time went into the planning of each and every nut and bolt. Once he spends a little time sorting out the car, it should be a stellar contender in AIX (though I still wish he was in AI!!!!!!).

Congrats Will.

Thanks for all the nice words, guys. Shugg, remind me to send you $20 for that.

I am glad you and John made it up there.

Hoov - Good thing I took the Explorer or I would have used a Shugg-prop. For the AI site, who do I need to send my info to?

Big Dad - Yes, I will be at the comp school in Feb. to get my license (hopefully ) for the first race.

It was a blast. Found a lot of bugs to work out but it will be good to go in Feb. Thanks to all of you, especially Bryan, for the advice and motivation to get this thing done. I do have to mention that there is NO WAY I could have done this without my wife putting up with it and a great friend, Jeremy , that has helped me tremendously on this. Between welding, tranny rebuilds, advice, getting part, driveline and rearend work, and giveing me the best motor I have ever had, he is hands down, without a doubt, THE MAN. Bryan and John have met him and I hope most of you will because he is awesome. His wife is great too, because she put up with us, too.

I am looking VERY forward to next year.

Oh, forgto to mention that there is a certain satisfaction in having a BMW M3 flag you by.

Will, congrats on the car. Sounds great!!! Well, I don't know what it sounds like, but the thought sounds great!

Oh yeah, I'm jealous!!!

SIUNARA · 12-02-2002, 10:02 PM

Will,

It's nice isn't it... At Lowes, in Sept, an M-Coupe flashed his headlights when I was out on the warmup lap in the instructors group (took a passenger for a ride) to indicate that he wanted to pass me so I let him - well.... when I flew by him on the next lap, he barely had enough time to give me the pointby...
he stopped by afterwards and apologized for flashing his lights... I said I didn't mind, I was still just warming the tires (toyos) when he passed me...

Congratulations! I guess I'll put my 210hp 302 back in and jump back down to AI and kick some shuggy+hoovy butt then

OR

I am thinking that those twin turbos I have laying around are about to find a new home...

(mental thought... Geez, just when you think you got the hang of this someone comes along with a bigger engine

)
