As it’s been rather quiet on here recently I thought I’d post a picture of my car since it won’t be out on the track for a little while yet frown

It’s a ’63 Vette rebuilt last year by WRE, with a Jeff Bull built 572" BB. We retrofitted my 4.100" Flying Toilet system to work with the new BDS 8-71 blower – don’t think anyone else is doing it this way as most people using single throttle bodies use a Terminator.

It should run in the 7s when we eventually get out – testing at the beginning of the month showed that we had transmission issues which are currently being remedied. At the moment our best guess for an outing, is testing in May/June and then Top Sportsman at The Mopars in July.

Good looking car, I like the "Hot Wheels" optic with a huge blower sticking out,

bet it sounds nice too, will you stay in SP/ET or eventually move into Comp ?

We couldn't make the numbers add up for Comp - the car's too light. We'll stay in Su Pro until something else turns up.

It is a bit cartoony isn't it smile

It was once yes, the only thing that remains is the body, everything else is brand new.

Getting a new car out is exciting isn't it smile
