Sounded awesome (no muffler) and the stock stuff held up pretty well. The little 3.0 pulled like a train down the straight. Some peeps thought it was a 540
We put about 800miles on her that weekend.
I also took the TANK down to Road Atlanta for the The Mitty and did some Touring Laps in it. This car was a BLAST at Road Atlanta. It turned in really well, made awesome noises going down through the Essess and Turn 12 and hopped curbs really well . . . I even got scare some of friends during it's run on the track (Ellen may still have her eyes closed :D)
Right now the TANK is serving as the DD for Mrs. Zero
