What up Rob...

Actually that was Bob S's first time on Big Willow- Plenty on Street but totally different tracks.... The car was fine, just a rubber plug. I was right behind in in My Yellow Z when it happened yet didn't have my video rolling.

Kinda sucks, wish I hot the video, cause he was totolly sideways out on the bottom of 6 to 7.

Oh I see. That must have been a butt clenching moment though to see that smoke mid-turn...

Sounds awesome Derek. I cannot wait until I get my BB700's installed.

I hate to say it, but I knew you guys wouldn't get where you wanted with the supercharger when I read the project car plans in the magazine. I'm glad the project moving again, it should be amazing when you finish! DSport is an incredible magazine for those in the automotive community who want to learn the intricacies of modifying vehicles. Attention to detail and quality are never overlooked, which sets the magazine apart from every other import tuning title on the shelves. Best of luck to you on everything,
Connor

Thanks alot Connor, we appreciate your support! Especially now that Modified Mag has been bought by Primedia, DSport is the last resort for the true hardcore performance enthusiast to get the best cars and info.

Never miss an issue of D Sport --- it is the Turbo of the mid 90's for me....learned alot then from those turbo contributors and glad Mike F. has been successful with DRAG Sport aka D Sport

I cant wait to see how the G turns out --- I follow the Honda stuff in the mag and the Nissan stuff (RH9 project) has been impressive and very informative about the true costs of building a history making machine
