Unfortunately shortly after those photos above I managed to destroy my Jacks trans pretty much entirely when 2nd failed (and took teeth through every other gear).

I picked up a beater trans to get it mobile again until I decide where to go with it - maybe an auto parts car, not sure yet. In the process of doing that I discovered my twin disk was also eating itself at the hubs. I have switched to the gear driven QM twin set and I must say it's night and day over the old disks. No chatter, no noise on decel, engagement off a stop is smooth like stock and it feels amazing. Only clutch I'd ever put in a DSM at this point and I'm running the "race" disks.

Pics taken yesterday, I did fix the bumps and chips and some of the worn paint on the underside and converting from AdobeRGB to sRGB tends to move the blue towards the purple side of things but I don't care I like how it looks. Maybe someday when it's all painted again I'll say do THIS:

RWD?

Nice car and good luck with whatever you decide.
4 Slicks = AWD!! 9 Second street car monster.
I think I recognize those slicks :D
They held air just long enough for the pics lol, it was a bitch to get it back in the garage my air hose didn't reach.
Nice pics. I had the same idea today but maintenence started plowing while it was still too early to start the car. I'm crossing my fingers the maintenence road will still have snow when the sun goes down a bit more.
I love that you still have this car and keep it so clean.
Drag Car...Street Car and now Auto X car!?!?!??!?
