Report July 26 2011

It has been two months since I last reported to you my faithful fans and I am sure you are by now thinking "He's gave up" "They are not doing anything on the project" Etc.
Well although it seems like we are steady on the course, (or trying to get back on the course), it is a time in the project where all hands are busy making a life with family and trying to keep the wolf away from the door in these financially difficult times. However, we are still picking up support and new sponsors in kind almost every week.
One of our areas of limbo is the engine situation, as we have hopes that our engine sponsor will be able to allocate the high performance version of the Cummins 3.9BT(A) that is the platform of our race engine. We have all the speed equipment and and almost all the parts to rebuild our failed engine #001 and we have a spare core to machine and build a backup but a new one would mean less work and strong new parts are included.
This photo was taken before the car was stripped of the old landing gear and the turbo piping was removed and taken to KOOL COAT for ceramic coating.
