It's being done, 2.3 Whipple will be tested on the Koshermobile!!

I wasn't going to do it, but I did.

This is how the story goes:

I get a call from Tim at REM that 5.0 magazine is driving down from their office in Lakeland to visit REM. So Tim asked me to bring my car over. The Whipple was on the counter. I have to say it is a magnificent piece of work. 5.0 Magazine took some shots of the Whipple and Tim and Paul told them it's going on my car. We did a base run on my car and tomorrow the Whipple goes on. The first test will be at 15 PSI, then 17 and then maybe 19. I'll make the call on the 19. The car should be ready for the big South Florida meet at Crandon Park this weekend. I'll keep everyone posted on the numbers and pictures. This is such a sweet looking S/C!!!!

BTW, I'm not asking or expecting anything from REM. I have a good bond with Tim & Paul and am confident that everything will work out just fine.

P.S. The guys at REM are going to be a busy bunch tomorrow, so if you call them they may not be able to answer all your questions about the S/C and about the testing yet.

Hey Neil,

I think you should make your way over to www.tchracing.com

if you haven't already. It's mostly local (SOUTH FLA) mustang owners.

I'm sure a lot of folks over there would love to see/hear about your monster Snake....................there's a few BIG DOGS over there..............check it out, it's a good site.

I hope it'll be ready for Sunday's meet...............Can't wait to see it, and hear it!!!

jc

I know this is not the correct forum, but If it wasn't for the sucess of the S/C Lightning I don't think they would have produced the S/C Cobra.

Rich, (1 Bad Bolt), does it matter if your car will sound better?I'll be so far in front I won't even hear it!!!
