Did I miss something? Was the tuning all done?

I believe tuning begins the day the car returns from SEMA.

I don't think it's taking longer then expected, If i remember right they wanted the car ready for SEMA as in appearance and all. Also keep in mind thats also what the sponsors wanted so the car can been seen. After the major show is when they are going to car about power but as for now I would imagine they more or less care about the looks of it.

Thanks Toner!

Guys the car was visually ready for the show and that was our biggest and main concern to showcase the technology and products. As stated earlier the car will be running and testing soon. We are in talks with a few new sponsors to supply us with new gears for the transmission as well as widening the car and redoing the sound and interior. The car is going to have a whole new look come spring time. Till then we are focused and determined on getting the car running flawlessly. Thanks to everyone who stopped by te booth!

Also, even though there were only 5-6 Z's at the show we represented well with very unique mods and classy looks!
