I can't comment too much about the Shadow's handling.  It did look real good
and fast around some corners on the streets of Milwaukee.  But we set it up
for drag, never really thought of handling... Car was created because it was
determined that the only way we can go fast with this Club car is to do it
cheaply. (XPSI doesn't have membership dues/fees)  What I can tell you is
that it went 13.4 with a 1.89 sixty foot and it weighs in at about 3100lb.
And for anyone wanting to build a dual engine car you'll have to worry about
setting up and adjusting the brake system (4 wheel front disc) long before
you want to worry about handling.  Also, we all know what a turbo spooling
up sounds like, right?  When the Shadow spools up, you get spool up in
stereo.  :)
