scannon Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Love that white frame. I'm looking forward to hearing about its performance with the LS3 engine.
Kitcat Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Like the NASCAR guys say:" That thing is all ate up with motor"!
WestTexasS2K Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 Sweet I like the white chassis. It's going to fun.
snookwheel Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 I stopped by the new shop last week and saw that beast. What a beautiful build!!! K Scott

soareyes Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Looks great! Definitely unique without the hood bulge compared to other Stalkers.
Bonjo2 Posted September 20, 2011 Author Posted September 20, 2011 I think the list is never ending... forgot rivets and sealer Eventually-once registered/street legal -race wheels and sticky rubber -wing-nuts/quick release for front the rear wings
MightyMike Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 I cannot wait to see more photos. It will be a rocket!
Bonjo2 Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 finally. No gotta get that carbon dinoc on the hood and scuttle, put sme fenders on, and go for a ride...
Bonjo2 Posted October 31, 2012 Author Posted October 31, 2012 The car is wicked brutally quick. No drama, it's just a rocked. If I start in 2nd I can get to 60 without a shift in about 3 seconds. If I push, and stick, maybe much quicker. I really need to get some track time so I'm not always getting surprised on public roads and grinning like a retard. It's funny how the tires broke loose and marked the road accelerating from 55 to 80, and how 80-110 happens about as quick as a breath. Now, replacing the pinion seal and axle yoke. For some reason the yoke flange/dust cover has a split in it and tore up the pinion seal, pouring all 3 quarts of 90 weight onto the lot.. Aside from my drippy rear end, the only downside so far has been wind buffeting over 80, seatbelt slapping face at 90, and anything not buttoned down flying high into the air over 100.
MHKflyer52 Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I like the start video and the sound....even better is the section of pipe or tubing falling down from the vibrations of the exhaust note...way cool.
subtlez28 Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 Very cool ride! I am going down to get my Brunton M-spec the first week of December. Mine will get an L92. So I should be in the same ball park, performance wise. Look forward to seeing more of your car. Keep the updates coming!
Bonjo2 Posted December 18, 2012 Author Posted December 18, 2012 I drive the car all the time. Rear wings already sandblasted. Very cool, very rapid.. I hope to replace the seats and maybe finish up the body and wiring sometime in Jan. It's just so much fun to drive. Not fun to work on.
