Default my S gets her first exposure...

i'm finally getting the car out for the rest of the world to see, and i started at an up and coming site for tucson for racing and show cars. i couldn't think of a better way to get my baby's name on the streets than to give someone new some free press covering my baby. more to come.

of course, my final thank you went out to the s2ki community for all their support and help. i wouldn't have the car i do without the good folks here.

keep in mind when that article says 400, it's talking at the engine. at the wheel, it's a bit less. and go here for a list of all the engine work:

http://www.killer-f20c.com

also keep in mind that i haven't hit the dyno yet nor had my VAFC tuned, so i can guarantee that number is completely accurate. i personally don't like throwing around numbers when i can't back them up on paper, but the writer wanted something solid, so i gave him my personal goal of 400. if i'm not at it, i'm damn near it though.

What do you run the 1/4 mile in? Can you keep up with Corvettes, 911s, NSX, and other cars like that?

couldn't tell ya cuz i don't track her. but i can tell you that the NSX has a reallky sweet SC'ed X that was quite impressed with how well i was hanging with him. i think he was just trying to feed my ego though and playing with me.
