I have 420 -430 rwhp and the tires spin. I shake my head thinking about people who have 560-600 rwhp . You have around 700-740 rwhp. lol are you driving with drag radials eh ?
btw did it ever cross your mind to make your ride AWD while this project was undergoing eh?

Haha, Yes that was classic. I have a machinist here in NY and he built me one for about 700-800 bucks If I recall. Pretty much made it out of Chrome Molly. He told me if I twist this one he will refund me the money and build me a new one for free. Its holding out excellent.

AWD has it's downsides, you'll notice true race vehicles that came with AWD switch to RWD when they reach big power levels. Plus AWD is boring and gay

Gents,
The offers have come in and honestly feel like I am making a mistake cause they are just coming in.. . Did not expect it to draw this much attention.
I will detail the car, take decent pictures and list it with no reserve on EBay. I have heard from many interested people but as you know until the fat lady sings it's not over. I don't want to undersell the car nor oversell it. It's tough to put a price on such a special car at least to me. This suggestion came from a good friend. Thanks!
Once I have details I will post link to auction.
PS. The AWD will not help this car, it will probably not last. GT30s come in hard on race gas.

Sorry to hear you are considering selling her, but at same time I completely understand where you are coming from. Hopefully you will find a nice home for her with someone on the forum.
Good luck bro!

Yo bud..
I just thought of another huge selling point for your EV12 vs Brabus EV12.. Brabus strokes 5.5 600 eng to 6.3 liters yet uses inferior Turbo's & makes 800 Crank HP while your EV12 w/superior Turbo's nearly makes 800 @ rear wheels! Put that in your eBay add if this sale goes that far On Q16 your EV12 should easily make 800+ rwhp or 1000+ BHP

Thanks for the kind words. As of now I have not really pursued trying to list her. I have received a few offers and have interested members trying to work out their finance. I am really trying to stay away from eBay, I rather sell it to someone I know and not just a mere stranger. If it sells to the board I would like to know when ever it breaks a record , Just dont want to hand her off to someone and never again hear from them.
