Thanks Beau! I need a big sponsor like Scoggin Dickie and maybe I come to Lubbock and do some racing.. Haha jk.

Yep kyle it does get expensive, I'm gonna go with E85, that way I don't have to buy $8 racing gas or if I was to run methanol I'd have to change 8-9 quarts of racin oil after every night and that's expensive..$3 E85 and chnage your oild every 3-4 races is bout as cheep as you can get it.

Avalanche- its a mid 80's metric frame, we have to run the stock frame clear to back to above the rear end housing. It'll be a 3 link rear suspension.

Awesome. Super talented individual here. It's pretty awesome to see this guys mind in action. I've never seen anyone be able to visualize something and then turn it into reality like this guy.

Congrats man. Can't wait to get this thing on the track and see what it will do.

I cant tell if its the picture or not, but looks like a tight fit in the rearend fuel cell mounting area.

I would almost guess there are more G body cars getting raced than there are being daily driven.
