Re: Return of SVreX
Of course, I agree with you, but it does seem a shame to cut up a really nice 5 speed.

Re: Return of SVreX
Hey there, Huck! Terrific to hear from you again!
Much as I'd like to, I don't think I can make the Dragon. Maybe next year.

Return of SVreX
Hi guys! It sure has been a while!!
Some of you may remember me- I built a SVX racer called the "SVreX" back in 2004, and took it to the Grassroots Motorsports Challenge. It performed...

Re: SVX Straight line performance
I think you are missing one.
My car (The SVreX) ran 13.8 at the Grassroots Motorsports Challenge in 2004. It was AWD stock slushbox and gears. It was pretty stripped, and had a 75 shot of...

I'm baaack
Looks like my 5 spd claret is simply the SVX that doesn't want to sell.
I had it sold on EBay, deadbeat buyer.
I had it sold locally, deal fell apart.
I have decided I will keep driving it....

Re: A special 5 speed
Yep. I've put it back on EBay. Buyer didn't close the deal.
Be careful, too. I tried to set it so the bidding would close at a more reasonable time (since SOMEONE we know fell asleep ;) ), but...

Re: I'm ending an era
Me neither. (Sigh)
Oh well, I hope it goes to a good home.
So far, I haven't gotten a response from the buyer. Was it someone on this forum?

Thank you.

Re: A special 5 speed
Thank you.
I kind of wish the camera angle was a little better, but I had a lot of technical difficulties. I did the best I could.

Re: A special 5 speed
I'm pretty sure they are 380# front and 350# rear.
Jason Porter helped me spec them, but I am a little confused. We built these struts for the SVreX originally which went over budget for the...

Considering I'm the guy that showed up once in an F-250, I will certainly always feel welcome- but I DO appreciate the invite! :D

Re: A special 5 speed
I just had it checked out by a mechanic. He said no issues- he tried to buy it from me (plus 2 other people while it sat there!) :D:cool:
He was surprised at how quick it was.

Re: A special 5 speed
I don't think I suggested this car was a drag racer. I would not drag race a car with a full interior in street trim and no roll bar, but to each his own.
You are forgetting there is now a...

Re: A special 5 speed
OK, so I looked harder at the door. The truth is that I am overstating it by calling it a crease. It is a small scrape/ ding about 1/2" x 4" long along the edge of the driver's door.
Not sure...

Re: A special 5 speed
As I noted in the Ebay ad, there is a crease in the drivers door, and I will include a spare good door if desired. I dont have a better picture available.
