I was happy to see the SandRail too Dave!

This shootout was a blast!!! The SL-R did awesome at autox, all car no driver (me driving) Very very happy for its first time going around corners and thank you thank you J for letting me drive it! It even did great down the 1/4 mile for it's first full pass, 11.9@117 leaving the line easy(1.99 60'), shifting at 6-6.5k and going through the traps in 5th. 95 mph in the 1/8th Perfectly stable the entire time, the front splitter modification worked!

Good to hear! There is a clip of the 11.9 run in this video I put together. Nice meeting you Matt, even though it was just for a second.

You too!

 

[dave99gst]

Yea, i thought that run looked effortless when i was trackside

 

[Boosted98gsx]

I cannot wait to order one now.

I loved reading through all the posts on your ride. The video of your run was pretty good, I want to see a vid of you really working it though! How well does she ride? Is this something you think that is daily drivable (like couple times a week) or only track? I know how our 2g's feel when making good power does your SLR even compare? I think what you have done is just amazing man, I love everything about it (maybe not the color of your splitter as much, paint it black!) but just an incredible project that gives mad props to this site and our DSM community. Thanks for giving me a couple hours of VERY interesting reading material and ideas for the future! great Job!

The most boost it hit was 10 psi with very low timing Haven't hooked the wbo2 up yet

It will be stupid pretty soon Found a private lot we can use and maybe do some quick WOT dial in.

EDIT: @ LSD pic

I was gonna say what pic?

[GSX_TC1]

[9!'clipseDOHC]

Good question... We haven't forgotten J!

 

[GSX_TC1]

Dsport is gonna have their's finished and on stands Nov 1st.

 

[crash89]

Dsport boooooo!!! J like fell off the side of the earth.. I havent seen him since the shootout and I live in the same town as him.. WTF

 

[FenixTX717]

this vehicle is really bringing alot of friends together, thats awesome

That is how we WI people roll! Well more or less just the Janesville, WI peeps


But /J has been a busy busy man! The rest of the videos will be out soon, DSport has nothing on us! Except, unlimited supply of money to fund their equipment...

 

[phizzalot]

Any more updates or vids of this? Cool project.

 

[Boosted98gsx]

I still wanna build a 2.4L longrod ethanol SL-R (or just buy an atom).

 

[crash89]

I've only seen /j a couple times since the shootout. The sl-r has been running since however, parked in the garage since its been snowy all winter. Last I knew he was trying to get it street legal. Trying to find a loop hole so we actually can.

It makes an appearance in the Shootout DVD trailer VVV If you havent, buy one of his DVDs!!

Wow, so he still hasn't been able to title it? That kind of sucks! That would be my biggest fear about building a custom/kit car .

 

[dave99gst]

im sure if he cant do it in WI he can have someone in MI do it then "sell" it to him.

 

[crash89]

He has family that lives in Il so hes thinking of doing it that way or something.. But, again, I havent heard much from him lately. However, here is one of his new vids from a kinda local dyno day.

[dave99gst]

is that J's qudracopter ? or was it on loan ? ( hoping for aerial shots @ the shootout )

 

[crash89]

Im pretty sure is J's. He sent out a mass text with a small video with it.. I havent seen it but just from the video Ive seen its friggin awesome!

 

[GRNDSM]

Has anyone heard from Jay? Is this car still around?
