Very nice videos!  I like the shots from the rear, they made you feel like you were riding along with you.

Wow, very cool! This is always something I have wanted to try with the Cuda, but just haven't got around to doing yet...

A little offtopic (and probably dumb), but I was wondering what transmission you are running paired up with your 6.1L swap?

I liked em!! NEAT and would be even better if the track was a little bit larger,.. but it was pretty technical for a LARGE BODY CHALLY. Your car performed admirably. Full size Karting SAWWEEEET!!

Man that course is TIGHT!! and the concrete barriers too close for comfort.  I did a little SOLO 1 a while back and we tried not to have too many spots on the course where you couldn't wash out a little before contacting a fence.  The kart path doesn't lend itself to pushing the car does it!  Your car looked awesome on the track, kind of like a roller coaster ride though, its over way too soon.
