Met Chris over at Glen`s shop today.



Plans where to clean up the Durnago and Beeast.



Sorry that I did not get more before and after pics, it was a busy day.



Both where pretty dirty a few before shots of the Beeast, but none of the durango. The durango was pretty bad. I think it went out mudding once or twice...

Great job. The Atom would be a blast. I doubt anything will keep up with it on the track.

Tort WANTWANTWANTWANT to the power of OH YEA! Love the atom! Can`t go wrong with a sc`ed civic engine either! They do use the civic engine on this side of the ovean, don`t they?





Good work on the SuperBee, but those cars are horrible. Especially in yellow.

I don`t recall seeing an Atom before with the front and rear wings. Looks like it was a hoot, lucky dog!

Apparently S.Brake is right. In N. America the top of the range Atom uses a SC`ed Ecotec good for 300 hp and 250 lbs-ft.
