Best two pictures of the Fiat X1/9, this one at Turner Field 2004. Notice the super-trap! Posted by Hello


My girlfriend/best friend/racing team leader and love. What more could a man ask for! Posted by Hello


All new brakes for 2005, new Brembo disk (vented and drilled), rebuild calipers with new teflon braded hose. And semi-carbon pads. I may only have 85HP, but I can stop better than a new 911.....Notice the nice coil-overs! With KYB adjustable. Posted by Hello


Small but interesting mention of the "Soggy Pasta", managing a win with less than .001 second difference with second place. Mr Jeremy Braun and his dreaded BWM. Posted by Hello


The Soggy Pasta Fiat X1/9 at the "little Talledega" track in AL. Not enough power, managed a 180 coming into a gicane. This was before the front anti-sway bar was installed. The rear end (mid-engine) ad a tendency to want to pass the front end. It was not the drivers fault.... Posted by Hello


Last race for the Fiat in 2004, Turner Field. My nemesis (a BMW) was not there that day. Very cold track condition, unable to maintain a descent tire temperature. Still managed a win. Posted by Hello


New Exhaust for the 2005 season, due to A- New noise regulations. B- MORE POWER, the old Super-trap was and never as been any good. But it did have a nice sound. Posted by Hello


The start of new modifications for the Fiat, elliminated the exhaust shield and wrap the header with exhaust tape. Also you can see the original Cold air intake made of an exhaust pipe.... Posted by Hello


New carbon fiber intake tube (with a larger pre-plenum for torke). Using insolation foam (home depot), carved to desired shape (function follows form!).....and then Posted by Hello


First layer of Carbon fiber applied, bottom first. Used two part epoxy, brush and cloves......and after it as cured Posted by Hello
