Damn dude. That's awesome

Do you have a list somewhere on what you've done to it?

I have a pretty complete build thread over on the roadraceautocross.com forum. I can cross post it here if you're interested. The short answer is ... a lot.

I'd enjoy reading through it. This is the car with the custom intake and mechanical throttle, etc, right?

I like that you painted the flares black, you know, for that slimming look.

John That car is awesome ... I'm surprised I thought I was the only one who liked black wheels on their cars.

Thanks. I don't usually like black wheels but they seem right on this car, and it's way easier to keep clean-ish.

I didn't paint the flares, the guys that made them did. They may eventually be red, I want to fix the various body issues this car has. I've never done bodywork but it's a skill I'd like to develop.
