Topic: Updates? What's new with the GLCOAT?

I'm just curious what's the latest with the GLCOAT.

It seems to have disappeared!

It's in heated storage, courtesy of the Dahlin Boys. I was promised an ignition system for Christmas by a certain Russkie, but no, he was too busy planning to invade the U.S. and force us out of our high schools and into the hills to get around to it.

He'll be at CMP, driving a fugly overgrown station wagon with a cheaty turbo motor, if any of you wants to kick his ass.

You could definitely do a crossover "Red Dawn"/zombie theme featuring Swayze, Charlie Sheen's sanity and Jennifer Grey's original nose.

Alex and I worked on it a couple of weeks ago. Still no luck with the ignition system. Every prototype has failed thus far. I'm thinking of pulling the motor(s) and having a rotary specialist go through them and freshen them up. If we can get spark this Saturday, though, we will try to get video of it running, however briefly.
