His 'crew chief' is another friend and co-worker who I used to turn wrenches with. You'll see Bonnie in the vid and mentioned a couple times.

What'* even funnier, is that THIS is his DAUGHTER. Yes, a member here:

i want one

nice

thats cool bill


but what up with the dome hub caps on the intense bonne?

Same as on the Spirit. Look again at the pics. Low-drag (aerodynamic).

did the flat black give intense a proven 5-10 hp?

Nice run! How many batteries does that hold? (I'm assuming it uses car batteries)

Seems like it would absorb a lot of heat.

That wasn't the reason it was painted flat black, and the very few who know why will never share that information. There was a very good reason for it though. And not a soul here would ever guess.

Don't even think about PM'ing Todd or I about it.

Base coat for the actual paint job?

anything to do with radar waves like on the mythbusters episode?
