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...

Thanks Lee!



Martin, See you down there.



KK, It should be fun on track for sure.



Tort, I agree 100%.



Thanks Greg! I think I will go put another CS on the truck as I just washed it.



Thanks John for your kind words!
 
looks great. ive always thought the graphics on the hemi chargers would look 100x better if they were painted on.

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 think Leno talked with brammo and got them to use SC'd Cobalt SS engines.
 
Thanks everyone for your kind words.

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.

That is correct.



Got a ride down at Roebling yesterday.



Going down the long front at 130 or so, it feels like you are going alot faster in a open car. You have to be on your A game to drive this car for sure, it is not forgiving at all. The owner had a pro "shake it down" for him for a few sessions at the end of the day. So he took alot of notes and will be experimenting with different setups in the future.
