Hey Tim how is it going? I think that my FE might really wake up the T bucket. What we need to do is build a carbon fiber T with good suspension, brakes and super stiff chassis that weighed about 1500 lbs. That would put the car around 2 to 1 wt to hp and could probably be licensable in Idaho as a
27 T.
I am thinking a sprint car wing and ground effects along with ABS and mid-engine layout. That would really wake up the Optima boys.
