It would probably run a lot faster with the body more level. The rear of the body is gonna scoop a lot of air.

[macs55]

All I can say is FUCK ya. Drive that bitch to Paso. I better see it there. That is teh culo de gato maaan! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Good use of leftovers, just like my wife combining things from a couple of meals instead of throwing it away. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

It is not like that back panel will be hit by a nice laminair airflow, after passing over a grilleshell, exposed engine and windshield. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
