I have plenty of plans, just no means of funding them! If I get to the point of having something to announce, you'll be able to read about it here and on Eurodragster.
Well, here's that announcement: http://www.eurodragster.com/news/news.asp#march22The team obviously approach things differently, so there will be differences in procedure. But the car itself is pretty similar. The rules are sufficiently restrictive[1] that one fuel car is much like any other. There's very little that you're allowed to do differently with the engine and clutch, for example. There are some differences in chassis construction, which can affect how likely the car is to stick to a straight line. I'm hoping this one will be more obliging than the one I drove last year, which had an alarming tendency to lurch to the left at around half track.
[1] On balance, this is a good thing. Yes, I'd love to allow innovation of the sort you see in the bike classes. But innovation costs money and the realistic effect of that would be to kill the class, as only a very few would be able to afford to compete.
