I got to be the test driver of this beast, and what else can I say, other than it was simply awesome! It pulls like a horny teenager, and apart from the mile long gearstick and having my knee in my eye from the clutch pedal being so high, it's a lot of fun. Gotta do something about the guard scrapage, and also the k-frame bottoming out lol
There is no other car on earth that has ever received the coveted Wilson AND Stojan DOUBLE thumbs up approval! Alex

Steve, that little spring on the clutch pedal is just to bring the pedal back down to a reasonable height.
It should really have an effect on the clutch operation. Your pedal will just sit a little higher. When can I have a drive? ;) EDIT: That thing must be making some massive power to slip that farken belt!!!!!!! It's as tight as a mutha farker!!
