A good view of the fuel pumps. (Yes. There is a thumb holding a diskette to block the sun for this picture. Not every picture can be good.)

Bringing the bottle up to pressure. Is that a bottle of milk?

Here is where the fun begins.

Two timeslips. There was a little excitement with the slip on the left. The character lines show the excitement level.

Let's go for a ride!

My friends and I had a lot of fun during the building and plannig of this car. The first night out resulted in a 10.86 @ 126. This is a far cry from the original 4 cylinder status which ran a whopping 19.80! Is there more to come? Come back and find out from time to time. New pictures will be added as the race season unfolds.
