We're down in texas finishing out build and beginning track testing and we made a lot of progress on the car yesterday so I thought I'd share the excitement of the car actually coming together while I'm sitting in the airport.
Yesterday morning:

Car at the end of the night:

At about 3am last night the new engine fired up and ran for the first time, and it sounded absolutely beautiful. It should see it's first day at the track tomorrow and hopefully it won't break too many things (fat chance). I'll try and keep you guys updated on how the car looks and whether or not it will be competitive by the first event of the year at the end of April, which by the way is at VIR. Holler.
