Introducing Myself And My Saleen

Hi Everyone,

I just joined and wanted to say hello and introduce my new ride.

In December I took delivery of a 2007 Saleen / Parnelli Jones 302 number 39. So far I haven't been able to drive it much due to the New England winter, but hopefully soon that will be over. The PJ is like driving a car out of the pass and is truely a good representation of a American Muscle Car out of the 60s and early 70s.

Also wondering if any othe PJ have shown up at this site?

I haven't pushed it, but seems to run through the gears quickly. Stats are 400HP, 390#FT Torque, 373:1, close ratio shifter, naturally aspirated, functional shaker scoop, performance exhaust that makes it sound pretty mean.

The suspension is all modified and beefy which makes it corner and handle like the original trans am racers except it has much better brakes.

C'mon Spring!
