Re: Project Drag Talon
If you are affraid of breaking the rear diff, use a conquest one. I'll sell you one for 100 bucks.
3.54 gears stock, you can get 3.90's or 4.10's or leave it, get a spool and call it done.

Re: Project Drag Talon
I remember something about someone telling me that my car didnt have much fabrication involved with it, etc, etc... Something along the lines of I should read the SFI booklet, etc, etc... Anyways... SFI 25.1E Evo:
http://forums.evolutionm.net/showthread.php?t=251529
It was tough not to say anything before. I believe it should classify as a Project. In fact I think it is slightly more involved than Jakes. Like someone posted earlier.... Those silly Winonians. Moron destroyed a $30k car.... What an idiot.

Re: Project Drag Talon
Dont be jealous  Destroying my car also would technically make it worth more anyways. Think... Buschnuts sold his tube car for $40k without an engine... I would guess an Evo would be worth more

Buscher's car set a few records in its day, i'd say that makes it worth a bit more than parts alone.
Did you ask shep what he paid for the tube car, or is this baseless?

Re: Project Drag Talon
It was posted what he paid for it... Also, this car sets a record just rolling out of the shop. Its the one and only of its kind. First ever, let alone going to make quite a few single digit passes this year!
