the only video i saw of this car, did not look like it could do 100mph without folding in half, im sure you will figure it out, if not all ready.

yeah i saw that, but looked unstable, and not really putting the power down since it would lift and fold...

The car keeps having different issues with the engine/ecu setup if we could have got it tuned out it would have stood up and no one would have ever doubted the chassis design again.

KAM systems not sure on spelling but it stands for kels automotive and marine we use this ecu on kevin warrens neon and kyle carters k series dragster. kevin is switching to aem v2 and kyle is on efi live right now. I keep saying we need to switch the pro car but **** is expensive and money is tight but getting better slowly.

I remember the original pictures of this car years ago. Hopefully you get everything dialed in and it runs good times.

the AEM v2 would be a great way to go. we have been playing with it on our all motor car and going to run it on both of our outlaw cars. the all motor car is running better with the AEM and it has gone a couple of tenths faster. have Brent call me if he is interested, I can help him out.

what trans is that?

v-drive actully works great, but there's a lot of different ways to do it.
I would've setup the engine/drivetrain differently myself. I designed a pro fwd car back in 2002 that would've been pretty wicked, but never had it built. Sh*t is expensive without proper funding.

A straight drive would have been a lot better but either way whole idea wasn't working it was robbing a ton of power too. With the engine flipped around and the trans going straight into the rear end its gonna be a lot better

the powerglide robs a lot so you either have to make more or use a different style trans

From what Brent was saying, the angle on the drive was robbing the power. He made an adjustment to the shaft to take some of the angle out, and gained a good amount of power from that alone. I remember he was talking about a straight drive, but not sure what hes doing now.
