I have one in the works. Just started, won't be done till next year. Single seat, 4130 tig, custom p/s front and internal bypass rear Fox, saco steering with heims, custom 22ga cell (wrap around/u-shape), powerbox, still have to talk to all the motor builders...
At least that is the design. I have to save up for each and every purchase, so its taking a long time. But this is the only way for me to have my own car. When its done it should be a good one.

Calling Dave Bolles!
Bajafoolin before you make your decision on the motor ask Frank about his new Hughes powerplant. He sounded happy with it from what I was hearing on the radio
the motor that frank got was still being broke in it is not even up to its power yet

I'm building a new 9 ss for Dave Bolles. I just built a new 2 seat 9 for Renzo Ricci. I also build class 9 Motors, Trannys, & Front ends. Here are some pics of the 2seat car.

Ryan is building the new Schank "FatBoy" chassis for me.. Have all the new shiny stuff ready to go when that chassis is done. The new car project was pushed off to the side a few months with the focus on good finishes in the MORE series with #911 car. The break between September and December race it will be completed.

They had legit reasons for a slower pace. The first 3 laps they had a Nevada driver who was very unfamiliar with the car and course...add in the dust and he was fighting to keep up with the "regulars". Frank's first lap (lap 4) was fast compared to others fourth lap...and that's not taking into account that he had to stop in the wash from some oil cooling issues. Shortly after catching and passing 2nd place on the last lap, he broke a balljoint.
Damn 9 cars..

Give Joel Mohr a call at Mohr Performance in Victorville....760-947-6647. He's got his own dyno and can show you all the specs. The only problem I have with his motors is that they only go about 110 miles without an air filter!!!

TL's fun and the live axle is cool. I'm a buggy dork and a swinger at heart but the TL is more fun than I've had in a while driving a race car, plus Gema loves it. How'd it look in that section? Now that we got the shocks figured out we can't wait until the next TL desert race! Where were you and pops Sat PM???
Oh and if your building a motor weld the #3 cyl, most of the builders do it.
