Hi all,

Nice to have the new engine broken in and able to stretch the legs a bit. Sorry for the poor picture quality, but I prioritized keeping my hands on the wheel. I did not have GPS, so won't claim any speed in particular, but this is looking good so far. FYI- The speedo is calibrated to normal BMW US specification. Needless to say, the scenery goes by rather quickly.

Again, many thanks to Asbjorn and Hans for making one heck of an engine and for helping make my vision for this car come true.

Someone said the numbers were hard to see in the other pictures. Here is part of the one picture up close to see the speedometer numbers a bit better.

This is all on 93 Octane.

The kit sounds incredible, but how about some vids, 60-130 times, 1/4 mile times, comparo's with other fast cars, etc. :thumbsup:
