Thank you sir. As for the Motec, the car is untouched at the moment from the way it was built. We are compiling a list of things to do and then will get started. Mikey will tune the Motec so I need to ask him about that unit.

Of course trying to run a number is fine if that is what you want to do but beware if you walk on the edge sometimes you fall off.

Look familiar? This was the last outing with the car when Pat owned it. Not sure who the driver is.

Here's another. The car was only giving 6.0s during that outing, if I remember right. The engine definitely needs to be uncorked. Pat had a very mild tune on it.

I had freshened up the A/C trans for Pat when the Art Carr T/C took a dive on him. The trans just needed to be cleaned out. No other real damage. The T/C was replaced with another A/C.

The date of this outing was 4/8/2005.

Though the times that I drove the car I didn't have any handling problems, I know some other people that have driven it had a hand full.

Pat on the left. QuickWE4 on the right. Nascar fan in the middle.
