First off I would like to say THANKS a MILLION.
Definitly thanks a A LOT to FOCUSPORT. LOL This car wouldn't be HALF as cool if it wasn't for all there Support. Seriously.

Anyways. About the car I guess. The car sees a LOT of track time. As much track time as I can afford really. I built this car to be fast and great on the track. Not some show queen to be sitting pretty. It's actually got a long ways to go really.

This year we are going for the back seat delete. Racing seats up front and a full cage. Couple that with a track oriented suspension and this thing should just about eat up everybody in it's way. Or so I would like to think.

All in all. Thanks to everybody who thinks my car is cool. After putting so much money into your vehicle and slowly see it change you start to loose sight on how cool it really is. This contest brought some of that back for me. I really didn't think people would think my car is cool. THANKS

Thanks again.

Nice car and how did you get track time at PIR?

**gateguardian** · 02-24-2007, 08:32 PM

The car is incredible! It's what mine wants to be when it grows up. Too bad I'm in college and live in two countries, so I can't really save up

P.S. - from the pics from the track - how'd u do compared to the other cars there?

**navlys32** · 02-28-2007, 08:28 PM

Sweet looking car, love the look of the front. I'm so jelous of that arm rest (No arm rest in my svt

)
