              We're gonna try to take it out to Raceway Park this thursday for some more testing. The car handles like crazy and goes like a raped...wombat. The major limitation right now is our rotted pizza cutter tires, they tend to plow when you dive it into corners pretty badly. Once we get some decent stickies on there it should be ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHING!

                  Rotted and cracked 175/55/13's during testing, but we have yet to pick out the race tires yet. We're limited to a minimum 190 treadwear, so that elminates most of the DOT track tires. I just found some nice 14" Dunlonps though with a 200 treadwear, so those might be in the running.

                          I think the motors rated for 160 crank, but we'll see what kind of a/f's its spitting out and go from there. Possibly throw an S-AFC on there and smooth it out if its all over the place. Another big concern is DB's dyno is only rated for something like 2000whp so I'm a little worried about getting an accurate reading above 1500 rpm...

                            I hear ya, thats a big concern everytime I throw the neon on the rollers. I mean, at idle, it sounds like your every day ricer, but off idle...

                              We won't be going to DCTC....It's going to DB this evening and we need to spend the last 23 days working out any final kinks.

                              I don't think we will peg their dyno. I'm just worried that when we hit the throttle on the dyno it will either smoke the tires or hook and rip through the straps.
