I saw it at SEMA 09, and at the Optima Invitational, but they had some issues. I was hoping to see it compete in '10, but never saw it. I hope they get it dailed in.

At first I wasn't going to spend the 7-1/2 minutes on the video, but I'm glad I did. That beast will rip up some asphalt!

And the idiot who thinks his bikes are the best...can't even ride those POS.

I like the rendering better than the real thing. The real truck looks lame to me.

Re: Project PT-57 By Hot Rod Jim's

I think they spent the money in the motor and used the art rendering as a guide for the body.Looks like another 25K-30K would of got the body to look like the photo.But it did sound pretty good on the dyno on the last pull though.
