It's looking good, will you be running this in the 17.5 class or mod?

That depends on what the rest of you guys want. I'd rather run the modern stuff in mod and keep these in 17.5 as more of a fun thing. I think the racing will be better that way too. Again though, whatever the rest of the gang wants will work for me.

I agree with keeping the 17.5 motor in it. The older cars just aren't as forgiving compared to the new cars and this is only made worse the higher the speed.

Great looking car, Jeff.

I only wish I still traveled to Cocoa to see it run.

I was hoping for that, I think at the new track I'm going to strap a mod motor to my 22 and see how it goes. It's my final leap in the racing world, it's been running very well in the stock class so I think I won't be too bad in mod.

Here's a few pics of the finished product. The first run will probably be this Sunday at Newred Hobbies in Ocala, Fl. They usually have Liverc.com up and running if anyone wants to check it out. It's only a test day though, not a race day.

Looking good Jeff. Maybe I can make another trip to go racing in the next couple months.

Jake, hotel Harris always has a vacancy for you! We have a new track opening within a couple weeks. It's indoor and 30 minutes from my house. It's the perfect time to come on down! Maybe you could jump on one of uncle Sam's flights and I would pick ya up. When you decide on dates let me know so we can start working on getting Reggie down here too :)
