I had to take time out to thank Dan the man aka Turbo50 for helping me this build. He assembled the bottom end for me & helped me pick out the rest of the parts to finish the build. I finally got everything buttoned up last week & today I paid a visit to TPS MotorSports. Jason aka MR STALLION took care of me. They got the notch running great and pulling hard. Had a "perma-grin" the entire ride back to Fremont. I honestly was expecting higher numbers but the car runs great but im sure long tubes, no cats & a differnt intake wouod take it up a notch. Jason took time out to make this video, enjoy! Still not done wrenching tho, TQ arm getting installed this weekend.

Congrats, I think it's perfect power for your style of racing, even you wanted to switch over to drag racing, it would be a 11 second car

Thanks Lee, yeah I think the numbers are great for what I'm gonna do with it. Any more power would be hard to control coming out of the corners. Can't wait to get out there.

Hey thanks again Jason, all I got to say is TPS is a "car guy" shop. I've been to other shops and they tend to have attitudes or whatever, not really making feel like their care to have my business or money. Glad we gave you guys a shot. I just got home from cruising with my dad for about a hour. He had a smile on his face the whole time. I was nervous the whole time lol.

Yeah man no complaints, thanks again. Its kind if crazy how fast you can run through the gears. Being a passenger is kind of crazy. She pulls like a bat out of Hell, can't wait to install the TQ arm this weekend. Ill prob take it for a ride out your way next weekend.

All my guys here are really chill.
This is a job, but also a hobby for us, and it shows. Hope to see you soon at our new facility, and im sure we will run into each other at the track because at our new place we have open track events and a few in house built racecars that we'll be taking out all the time.

I like the numbers Jason, that thing is going to be fun!!

On another note you said you were a little nervous letting pops drive it again, and I totally get it. But you got to give pops props for driving it like it he stole it [dance]

Where is TPS's new shop going to be and what's with the open track cars and open tracking events?? Bring it on TPS! [burnout] [burnout] [burnout]

It will be in SJ/Santa Clara. Not far from where we are now.
There are a WHOLE lot of changes for us coming soon.
Changes for the better....the facility will be larger, and we will be doing ALOT more things.
The announcement will be coming within the next month and a half.
We have already established the cars, tracks and events. As I said the announcement will be huge.
Customer experience will be AWESOME!!!
We will be doing things no other shop does.....just wait and see.

Thank you , yeah I really like the sound. Its a little different from your average lumpy cam. I just need some quieter mufflers now.

Looking good Jay! Good to hear that its finally ready for the track! Those are definitely big numbers for a raod race car...be careful bro!

On a side note, is the car street legal or are you towing it around?

Thanks bro, its damn near exactly a year from when we bought it. Its street legal, just no smog equipment on it right now. So yes & no. I have all the smog stuff packed away. Ill tow it to the track tho for the "just in case". Definitely will be careful, the good thing is it has enough power so you can shift early and your still going pretty quick. Kind of crazy how fast it rev's throughout the powerband. I honestly think any more power than this for the road course would be hard to handle. This car is damn light. Makes my 3.55's feel like 4.10's. To top it off it gets better gas mileage than my F150. Just got to be light on the go pedal. You have a new toy yet?

Sweet! It'll definitely be a handful on the track...but fun at the same time [burnout] can't wait to test drive it [Wink]

As for me, no toy right now. All my time and money has been going towards projects around the house. I'll hopefully be back out in "something" by next season.
