Glass is out, and we are doing some final cleaning and scaping. Cage should be going in within 10 days. We have a bit more prep work than I anticipated. It's easier to work around the car, without the cage installed, so I'd like to bang out a few more things prior to that.

The plan is tackle the Unlimited Class normally aspirated. Yes, you heard me correctly. 
The plan is to tune the car to 350whp+, and conduct chassis testing, and mechanical and aero grip testing. With a projected 2700lb weight goal with cage and safety gear, I think we can run some extremely fast laptimes, that will eclipes most forced induction unlimited cars.
Then once that is completed, it's a full engine build, and forced induction.
We should be done with phase one, and ready for track testing in Nov.

This car is so far from street legal it's not even funny. But we actually do have a license plate and it is presently registered, and insured. So who knows....lets see how it looks first.

The 370Z uses that internal slave, and the clutch/flywheel are completely different.
