Has anyone else been proposed to and voted for president in the same comments section before?? ;) hehe thanks guys for the nice comments! Eggs- No the wheel base was NOT shortened. I think thats too dangerous when building a race/track car and certaintly saab can build a better chassis than I could. ;) Its been repainted yes but it is in its original factory color from saab. black. Its never been purple!!! The tires are GENERAL's. Great tire especially for the money and it had the best raitings on tirerack.com for ultra performance tires. They are "Y" rated which is the highest for speed! I also have a custom built transmission in the car with a LSD of course. Traction is actually no problem at all except when its strapped to the dyno it likes to spin tires after it hits about 475-476WHP. We are going to tune it again tomorrow so maybe some new photos then. Thanks for everyones support!

Inquiring minds want to know... OK, one other question: so what tires are on the car? transmitting that power to the pavement through the front wheels has to be difficult.

Did you shorten the wheelbase or is the rear door simply fixed in place and refinished? The earlier shots made me think that the car was shortened, but this full shot makes me think that it's the "normal" length. Hmmm… one other, actually, two other questions:

That would be ricey, not "muscle"! As for the stickers those don't stay. The HP connections on was put on about two days ago while on the dyno and the MIDNIGHT one just doesn't want to come off so I have to deal with that when I bring it back home again. It also needs attention to the rear windows, more attention to the tune for daily driving, and I have a bunch of parts stock piled in my closet that haven't been installed yet! I just cant keep up anymore! I am proud of what its become so far but in the future much more is to come! Kaylan Marie Dual exhausts are for 6cylinders! That would be ricey, not “muscle”!

In all due respect, i would have made the 9k more low key by not sporting any stickers, while showin' a little muscle in the form of dual exhaust. Who am i to talk, my car's running about 130hp. ;-) :-) Kaylan ROOOOOOOOCKS!!!!!!!!!!
