Hello again!

The Blue Hot Rod and Pro FWD cars were at Mech-Tech Institute this past weekend with Horsepower Sales as a vendor. It's always nice to get a chance to show off the cars!






Back home!



That's over 5,000hp just waiting to be unleashed!


Finally, the white cobalt is back at Horsepower Sales and should be picking up pace again with the build now in our hands again. Thank you to all of you that have been patient with this build!




Keep checking back to see progress and updates for all the cars!

If we're out that way, of course! It'd be nice to have a Cobalt crowd in a sea of Hondas.

How are you getting away with that (rule wise) since it was never offered in a cobalt?

From the first day of SFWD or Phase 5 Cobalts hitting the track, they were either using 4t45 or 4t65hd transmissions. Old NHRA Sport Compact rules allowed it and all of the events that we will be running in, allow this transmission. If the White Cobalt had the chance and rules permitted, it would have an Xtrac transmission like the Blue Hot Rod....and NO ONE could stop that car.

Maryland International Raceway Events:
http://www.importvsdomestic.com/rule...eet_import.pdf

OGS1320 Events:
SFWD | OGS1320

Import Face OFF Events:
FWD presented by S.P.E.C. clutches and flywheels

SFWD Shootouts @ Orlando Speedworld are pretty much exactly what the other tracks are requiring for rules.

That would be 12 A1 bolts.

If that was the case, we'd have a lot of issues until a couple companies start making billet bellhousings....which btw....I wish we did have out there :-(

Kinda hard to make it look stock when it's got a funny car cage in it lol. But still hope to make a few cry and make some money at the races!

Everything that is in these engines...can be found in the build book...except for a few other secrets .

Anywho, the team went out testing again tonight! Was running consistent low 8's on a new setup.
