Title: The Turbo Motor Is Alive!
Post by: Geoff on July 12, 2003, 01:59:05 PM
We just fired up the Turbo motor and broke it in. Everything went great just a little fuel PSI problem but other than that all looks good.
As i type this Jim is off to get some insurance and should be driving it in the next few days :rockon:

The car sounds incredable, a little loud but that should help scare off the Rice cars :D  Keep a eye out for a green beetle traveling at the speed of air...i mean light
