No, I consider myself a Rennlister, but I do read Pelican.

Nice! Do you do a lot of off-road riding?

I'll hit up the occasional dirt road with those tires, but mostly that's my canyon carver because it only weighs about 300lbs wet it's super flickable.
I have a separate set of wheels w knobbies/sprocket/chain that I switch out to go dirt riding.

I thought this would be more exciting than the blue Toyota Sienna that I presently drive.

I think I'm in the Twilight Zone...

PS - It was at 235 rwhp last year and was just at 245 rwhp.

Doing some work with month, planning on 280-300 rwhp (around 340 hp at the crank)!

Car's weight is apx 2190 lb verified by truck scale :)

My baby (since I was 18 - more than a few years):

Virtually all of the work (including the paint) has been done by me (with the help of a few good friends).
Come on out to a Shelby Club event and catch a ride! :D

Thunderhill!! It's a blast in a car - I'll bet it's a total rush on a bike!

Thread back from the dead!

Thought I'd share my new dyno chart

I made 292 HP and 212 ftlb at the rear wheels on CA 91 octane PISS (er..um fuel).

This equates to around 340 HP at the crank! Not bad for 1800cc!

and the new exhaust I fabricated...
