The race car sees daylight for the first time in quite a while. Dyno soon.

 

Wow.

 

Good to see you back Greg

 

Mmmm; that's delicious

 

Next time I am at UCONN I am going to have to stop by and bug you.

 

You know your always welcome!

 

So what's the location and date it'll be on track?

 

Really not sure yet.

 

 

welcome back Greg.
Delicious lookin engine..

 

Well I guess it's nice to see your car is back. You running NASA or BMW or both. I can't wait to hear(see) those dyno numbers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have fun knocking the rust of your driving - - Good Luck

 

Where is the intake system?

 

 

Yes, ...I will be extreemly rusty.
Not going to the Dyno to show "numbers". Just want to run the car prior to taking it all the way to a track. Checking all systems and getting the AFR right. Might have video if I can do so.

 

Yes, yes, video would be schweeeet.

 

.....oh my, ....it's scary fast.
I may be too old for this!

 

Must be scary loud also with that intake

 

Haaaa.... I can no way hear the intake over the exhaust!! When I was on the track last I was, everyone said it sounded like a jet coming in, but I can't hear that at all. Unfortunatly race exhaust on a Mini is not a pretty sound.

 

What?? Too old? This is a quality of life issue. You're never too old to scare the living crap out of yourself. Besides the car is much too nice to sit in a garage - it needs sunlight & speed.................

Someone ain't to bright without ear protection. Fingers in the ears don't work have way in pull. What happened to all the lettering?

 

 

When you get this beast out on the track, we'd all love to see some video of that, too. Cool!

 

I've Dyno'ed GSX-R600 motor on an engine dyno, inside, with no ear protection, straight pipe only admittedly not a smart thing too do, but UCONN doesn't really give us money for proper safety gear. A pull that short isnt going to hurt your ears (much)...

In any event is that at Bristol Dyno err.... Forced Induction Motorsports by any chance?

 

Charlie, this is a shop out by me, in Putnam. Very bright guy. Being where I am, I'm lucky he is so close.
