Whatcha guys think of her?

I don't think the 26 ao compares to the daytona 26 side by side. I have ridden in both and had them parked side by side at loto and grand and the eliminator is MUCH nicer than the ao. The price on the ao is what makes it such a sweet deal. For what your getting it is a GREAT deal.

A little more money, but I tought it was worth it. I bought the the 26 daytona that day. I could not stop grinning!

The more I think of it....mine is hard to compare to since it 1000 lbs. lighter with the Kevlar layup.....high back bucket seats......graphics.....power plant.....drive......basically nothing on my AO is stock.....it was built to win LOTO and that it did in 03 in the 26 class. Thanks for your opinions though. Oh......I did originaly order a 2006 Eliminator 26.....it was 82K without power and another 28K for a powerplant from GT performance. (Teague's 588) .......Im glad I found the AO I purchased.
