Well, I met up with Daniel Saturday morning to pick up the car, had a little breakfast at Sterks (if you've been to Wakeman...you know what I'm talking about 
) then met up with David to hangout and BS and do a little road tuning.
The car is FAST! Way faster than my 530whp STI was.....and it's on pump gas!!!
But its deceptively fast. Like I didn't feel like we were going that fast because it was so smooth, then I looked at the speedo and we were doing 130MPH and the car was still pulling hard!!
My first tank of gas in the car probably had about 10-15 2nd through 4th gear pulls on it, plus some cruising and I got 18mpg. I filled up today on my way back to Cincinnati and on this tank, I have about 150miles on the tank and I'm still over 1/2 a tank. So its doing very well in the gas mileage department.
The car has ran great so far! No issues whatsoever. The drive back to Cincy was a breeze other than not being able to find a V8 owner who's day wanted to be ruined by a 4 banger.
I just checked the schedules for the local tracks. Looks like I have a T&T opportunity on Friday night or Saturday afternoon. Now I just have to hope it doesn't rain.
Thanks again David, Daniel and the BR crew!

Good seeing you guys Saturday. VERY glad to hear you are happy with the car. Listening to you run the car on Saturday from my house, it sounded absolutely freaking amazing. You can hear how fast it is. Sounded like two street bikes racing, kind of weird.
I can't wait to hear what you run with it. This is going to be a crazy year for pump gas times, that's for sure.
If you need ANYTHING, just get a hold of me.
Thanks for letting us build it. Enjoy.

Thanks guys!
Jeff - Edgewater is pretty strick on the rules...kicked out a Supra that went 11.2@127 for no cage last fall. I heard tonight about Kilkare doing some Sunday night heads up street race type event (kinda like Pinks) and there are no safety rules for that. So I'll probably be going to Kilkare or Tri-State, which is in Hamilton.

53.7 for me. FYI I think KilKare is a SLOW track, I ran my slowest time there when I was on my stock turbo. Consistant 12.0's. Everywhere else I ran consistant 11.7 to 11.8's
My mph was down about 8 there to... just a heads up man.
