Default My 6 is so fast it literally hovers in air

I converted the car to a hovercraft............but had to drop the transmission to get the weight down enough for her to float.

Those are 16's sir................I might be doing something to make it able to bolt up some 15's if I get bored enough.



I also took a pretty interesting pic comparing the stock size 225 front rim to my 295's on the rear stock rim..........

Haha! They’re strong as an anvil- -pleased it’s a mod and not a repair

Far be it from me to spoil your January surprise.

I’ve bolted in many a Trans-Go kit in my domestics; it's invariably easier on the bench.
Nothing quite like groveling about on the garage floor.

I know what Mike's doing, but I'm sworn to secrecy.
I do hope when Mike completes his mods, he takes his "hovercraft" to sea level to see how well it performs.
2009 could be a whole new chapter for SRT performance.

Lol it's most likely him putting a manual gear box in it or possibly some how adding a 6th gear to the auto. If its got something to do with the trannsmission what else could it possibly be?
