    It won't break unless you manage to get it to launch on boost.

    My stock 9" axles are weaker than stock BW axles & I haven't busted one yet, even with the drag radials on.

    "With a single turbo 115 degrees would be too wide. I will make it 230/232 on 114 degrees."
    Fair call.

      Sold it to pay for other stuff, was the wrong width and only had shitballs axles.

      Lack of traction may make it okay for powercruise. I expect that a launch off the two step and transbrake on a set of radials at willowbank will send them to hell.

                Engine bay painted, what a mission the engine bay has been. Not perfect, but okay, tis way fucking white too!






                I realised I had a bunch of paint left over in the gun, so I quickly grabbed a scoop I had and hit it with a sanding block, not bad for a 10 min job.

                    Paint fumes are good for his sense of humor.

                      most unsatisfying day, took forever to get the tank out and make a simple alloy plate, loads of blood shed. Have to modify tank for a -10 outlet and return, off to summit to get some more bits, this aeroquip stuff is total shit

                            Is it straight white or is it supposed to be the factory white?
