Damn it, looks like no group buy, so I'll have to pay out of my teeth for a one-off now...

Sorry not for me either, but that’s a great website – thanks for the link!

Out of interest why can’t you use one from a Tuscan racer?

BTW You are a top nutter really enjoying following your build…

The Tuscan Racer kit wont cut it on my engine power spec.

Not a nutter, just putting my money where my mouth is... but I reckon she still wont be fast enough! We'll see how I feel after she hits the strip, might go back in around xmas time for a 2000hp road legal upgrade... hmmmm..... (then I definitely will be a nutter!)
already looking at meth fuel cell kit... hehe (shit, nearly let the cat out of the bag)

Wow that would be something to see, will you take her to the Pod? If so would love to pop up, would you do one of the RWYB days or an event?

I take it you've never driven 1000 bhp/ton? No, me neither, but I think it's unlikely you will be disappointed! Given the amount of torque you are expecting, have you worked out how fast you will need to be going in order to put that much power down through two wheel drive?

The scary thing is, I have, made quite an impact in a couple of hotrod clubs, turned up at the Shires meet un-announced in october!!!
Driven a handful of 1k+ sleepers, the most potent > a cortina with a shoe-horned custom 476 and twin screws (higher than the roofline!) pushing 1800 at the wheels... it was fast!! and I said to myself this is what I want, but now I think about it, mine will only peak 10tonne thats like half the feeling right?!.... I think I'm losing my sensation of speed.... you know where I'm coming from, you jump in a fairly 'fast' car the first time in your life, and it seems "WOW", but then give it a few weeks, and its like "cant she go any faster"....
