Good luck man. Glad to see it going to someone who can fix it up and get it running and driving like it should. Do you still have the 98 blue Tib also? I know you got the Accent also. Next time Im open for a meet down around there better believe Im coming down. If nothing else just to check out your collection. Post a ton of pics man. Noone else ever would post the real technical stuff and fabrication. Hope to see some of that.

Ericy321, when I went and saw this car in person, the fabrication was nothing to write home about. At that point, it had run a 10.7 but McEntyre hadn't quite got around to installing a crash pad yet. Pipes & Spaghetti. Even the hood was rough underneath.

It was still cool though. And undoubtedly wicked fast. Also burnout champion of the world. cool.gif That was the coolest dealership tour I've ever been on. He also showed me a turbo'd accent (beta swapped?) and I got a photo of me sitting on a formerly-the-world's-fastest street bike.

Yamaha, if you want I can try to dig up the pictures of what the car looked like <sub>I don't know how many</sub> years ago
