Great to hear! you could always put the extra SRT engine in the n/a car.

I am liking the Idea of Rudy having his own branding and numbering starting with 001 as this is business for him. I also think it would be nice to have a similar numbering system so track all V8 Crossfire and maybe add a an R designation for the Rude Cars. I can tell you it took about two weeks to figure out the mechanical swap and then another two years to figure out how make the engine start. During that time I communicated with the two owners in Germany who very very helpful. I also got Rudy involved to bounce ideas off of when the electronics were still giving me fits. I was really hoping and glad that Rudy got involved because I believe if anyone can work out the last electronic issues, Rudy can. Rudy has been very involved in my car, so if his business takes off, I want to reserve the right to the 000/prototype ID and of course a signed plaque!
