THAT is the picture I was looking for Rex. Thanks so much for posting a picture of the two together. I love the Mk. IV GT40.

No, that's Ford's display car from Pebble Beach in August.

This my first SEMA... definitely a Mecca for car guys. There is so much cool stuff here, it’s impossible to take it all in. The Ford pavilion is the section (I wouldn’t be partial on that). Response to my little hot rod has been good, and somewhat amusing. Even really sharp builders don’t fully understand the mechanics of when they look at it... and their self diagnoses have been entertaining. Then there are people who don’t know cars that thing it’s all stock. ** we hadn’t considered that the setup is so well packaged that if you don’t know what the engine normally looks like, it appears like it came from the factory that way** But when we start it, there is no doubt, this engine will eat your babies and steal your womenz. It sounds vicious... albeit to loud for the street. We will add some mufflers to tone it down befor we call it a finished product.

Here is a video I shot of the crowd that would come around when we would start the car and let it idle. I know the supercharger is really loud and we are going to address it but it sounds like a barrel full of demonic wasps... I mean it’s genuinely a little scary. The people there were amazed by it. Only one negative comment the whole day, from a Lamborghini owne no less. All n all, loads of fun

Yikes, never heard something like that. In the beginning I thought it would be the exhaust noise.
