My VRT/JWT TT G35 in Sport Compact Car Magazine

Gentlemen, check out the July issue of SCCM, at page 110. Five pages and pictures of the little beast. The boost was tuned down to only .8bar for the dyno because it kept slipping, but still good numbers. She turned a 1:58 lap time at Cal Speedway on the Grand Am Cup course with the ROVAL, so not too bad on a fast track, and a 1:25.667 on Streets of Willow with the bowl, so decent on a twisty circuit as well.

Congratulations Ed! I can't wait to see it!

Everybody also should check out the new issue of C16 Magazine (which is a great magazine if you haven't seen it yet) and the new issue of Sport Z Magazine as they also have Eagle1's awesome car gracing their pages. I think the C16 comes out sometime between today and Friday, but I am not sure when the new Sport Z comes out.

Yep....IMO, I am very confident in saying that this is the best "Daily driven/ Track Beast" G coupe there is, period. Building, testing and tracking this car made me fall in love with it.

Congrats Ed (Eagle 1) you have.....what I would classify "A perfect G"

Thanks Kristen,
Good talking with you the other day. I know you are craving that JWT TT kit on your car, VRT style. LOL! Glad you guys are doing good, and I will talk to you soon.
