this whole article is written from the drivers point of view you really don't do any of the work on this race car this shop does that you have it at?

Correct. ASMotorsports does the vast majority of the work, prep, maintenance, and trackside support for this car. They are an invaluable asset for this program. Andy even drives it on occasion too.

Sorry for the lack of updates, real work, events, waiting for parts have got in the way.

But it's a big update, we have all the drivetrain installed in the car now, ford 8.8 diff, custom driveshaft, and BMW DCT trans. After battling with it all weekend we finally got it turning its own wheels late on Sunday, then last night she was put on the ground and moved under her own power. This is a huge milestone for the swap, and the last hurdle to give me full confidence that we'll see this through.

Another huge milestone last night as she drove up and down the street and shifted through a few gears.

Still lots of tuning to do to get take-off nice and smooth and the shifting smooth and fast, but amazing progress since it couldn’t even turn its own wheels on Sunday evening.

Progress is crazy right now. This is probably the last video for a while as we need to do more wiring, configuration, and we're supposed to get snow by the end of the week. But shifting is massively improved here.
