I want to thank everyone for their compliments. Turbo Todd, my Crew Chief, and I are still on cloud 9 from the performance we extracted this past weekend in Palmdale.

I will be disassembling the car now to get it ready for paint. If anyone can refer me to a local paint shop that maybe willing to sponsor or participate in a partial sponsorship on a paint job, please let me know. I run on a tight budget as many of you may have seen from my truck and trailer. So any leads to help us continue our pursue to run a full PSCA and any west coast races next year would be greatly appreciated.

Now for those who are interested in knowing more about the car.

I'm a good friend of Norm's down here in the Bay area and soon to be moving to Roseville. Glad to see there's Mustang's up that way. I'll hopefully see you guys at the track.

Jayl, I do not have the budget for a Lenco or similar type of trans. There is also an abundance of maintaince work involved. When I go to the track, I'm in a gardner/utility open trailer with one person helping me. Basically, it's out of my league at this time. It's my dream to drive a car with either a Liberty or Lenco one day!

Hey Norm, I can contribute a 'paint chip' to the cause. Its yellow if you catch my drift [Smile]

what if you could pick up a lenco real cheap? still too much pit work or would you "make it work"

Chris and I have talked about this and it just might happen..... [Big Grin] [Big Grin] [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

Guess close to 1800hp is just too much for 29.5x10.5 tires [Wink]
