Plan to have the car there for Tech only. Hopefully in June we can start getting license runs started.

We are finally in the final assembly stage. Things are really going along well. We are trying to get the car ready for El Mirage in May. I want to put it through tech inspection and try to get my bail out signed off. Hope to do preliminary testing in early June. :cheers:

Update;
The new liner has been in Palmdale at the home of the Nebulous Theroem III for almost a month undergoing brain and sensor surgeries. We planned to test at El Mirage yesterday but as we arrived we found the lake bed was too wet. We are going to try testing again this Saturday.  Things are full steam ahead and we will be at Bonneville under the umbrella of the White Goose Bar.

DITTO!
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

I wonder what it's like to have a full nights sleep the night before departure?

It could happen for 55.

Saturday, Bonneville, 148.699 on rookie run. Stayed under 150!
Sunday, 171.520 on the first pass. Nice tune up pass.
Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

They ran 263.736 yesterday. Looks like they are done for the week as they found water in the oil or vice versa from a leaking intercooler. Car looks even prettier in person. Pics don't do it justice. Great job guys!
