Skip -
The build is actually pretty mild... the engine was built for reliabilty and not just pure power. I would like think we make in the neighborhood of about 450hp or so, but can't say for sure - it will be on the dyno in about 3 weeks so I'll have some real numbers. I do know that so far this engine has been bulletproof.
Right now we're getting the car prepped to do the real Bullrun Rally in May - that runs from Montreal to Key West.. WOOHOO!

Cool, the starting point is about 90 minutes away from me....i'll have to keep an eye out for that.  I was wondering what all the questions regarding fuel cells was all about....makes sense now. Congrats on the exposure....looking forward to the show. Ron |

Yea... still haven't figured out the whole fuel issue though... on the show I was getting about 10mpg as well as carrying 2, 5 gallon cans. I don't want to drill into my trunk pan to put in a fuel cell, so I have a feeling I may be toting the cans around again.

I don't know what you had in mind for trunk drilling, but if you don't need huge holes, there are a few body plugs with holes already punched in them. get some grommets and you are set. |

Congrats on getting onto the show and beating on the charger for all to see !
I'll call home and have the GF tape it tonight.
I've seen other shows that cover "cannonball" runs, in USA and Europe and I was prepared to ignore this one.
Since the others were filled with [ stereotype coming...] mostly preppie, trust fund looking kids/people , who wouldn't know a bolt from a pulley.
Did anything break on your car ? Did you bring your mechanic ?
Can I ask as to your aversion/ animosity towards "pinks" ?
Personally I've seen some great episodes, very close racing and/or/both negotiating.
But yeah, there are some episodes where you can see someone is not giving 100% the whole episode.
Just thinking now you could write in to pinks and tell them your ready to race a Lambo for titles [?]
I'm excited to go home and watch MrAngry roast those big ol treads !
Heck I kept a DVR recording of "LeMans Classic Race" for months since they showed the 3rd Gen Olympia beer Charger at speed and an interview w/its owner.

Ack! Can someone get a tape or a DVD of the show for me? Apparently not everyone in my area has DirecTV and cable doesn't carry the Spike channel.
