    Was it sitting at a mechanic shop off to the side in the weeds? I work with him, he had a few monts at one time just curious.

            That's a tough number to estimate

            One car prepped and ready with 4 drivers that have all their gear, $1000 in entry fees for the drivers, car, transponder rental and camping fee. Then fuel in the car at 5+ gallons per hour. Food for four drivers plus drinks.

                        Firesuit and such are expensive, but once you have them, a weekend isnt terrible. You can get on with a team as an arrive-n-drive for $500-$700 usually.

                          I see you have a first gen coil/VC setup and a second gen intake. Did you eliminate the IMRCs? Have to do any tuning to the ECU? Is it still backed by a 4R70W?

                            We pulled the IMRC's out, JBwelded the holes, and ran it. We couldnt run the 93-96 intake, we didnt have enough room on the back to keep it.

                            No tuning whatsoever. Has a T45 behind it.

                                It shouldnt. We didnt even wash it. Just ripped the interior and drivetrain out, caged it and put all our running gear in.

                                It still has the Texas Raceway and NHRA sitckers on the front and rear windows.
