Interested to see where this car goes.

SUPERSTAR 02-14-2010 10:42 AM

video please.

That pic could have been photoshop productions.

You guys really built a great looking car.
I would love to see a hood without the part that sticks up, but I forgot what the engine looked like from the other thread.

Is cadilac gonna have you build a car next? :) lol
that would be a great drift car.

blu808 02-14-2010 03:55 PM

Thanks guys. Video is coming soon.
It would be great to build a Formula D Caddy.

Yeah, watching that guy Pilgrim destroy the compitition in that thing, you would think Caddy would consider it.


This car will be great to see in the line up this year.

Saw this thing in person at your shop. Scared the shit out of me when it revved... wasn't expecting that much LOUD! Ridiculous build.

tht.1.s13 02-14-2010 06:25 PM

MiataCharles 02-14-2010 10:04 PM

Good stuff! I am happy for Conrad, hes been telling me about it for long! Cant wait to compete against him this year :)

Andrew Bohan 02-15-2010 01:46 PM

SUPERSTAR 02-15-2010 03:00 PM

Thanks BroHan. That sound beatie.

Jakob 02-15-2010 03:24 PM

that is sick, it looks great going sideways and the sound is just awesome!

GSXRJJordan 02-15-2010 03:39 PM

I'm so proud to have been a part of this build ~ Conrad and Luke did a fantastic job with the mechanical aspects of the car, Andrew did awesome with the graphics (especially the Jordan Innovations sticker), and Conrad's gonna drive the piss out of it I can tell.

The only thing I'm not a fan of is the lack of visibility ~ you can't see anything lower than the hood for like 50ft. Conrad doesn't seem to mind lol.

Really? I was there working with Mitch to get all the electronics working properly so he could tune it. Did we meet?

Sup Charles! This is Jeff from Savini. :)

ericcastro 02-15-2010 03:58 PM

Car looks great.

Driving wise though,.....meh.

seems like Conrads having to do ALOT of sterring adjustment adn the car still wants to straighten out.

Although, that may not be the case at the higher speeds and wheel spin speed of FD.

Nice photoshop on the cooper tire arch in the picture, lol.

thanks for the video too.

fckillerbee 02-16-2010 04:06 PM

ugh....cones annoy me in vids.... None the less...nice build guys. Can't wait to see this thing at track! Any upcoming drift days before FD?
