If he has the money let him spend it!! I personally would use another platform but if that is what he wants that's cool.

You never know this guy might have ridiculous money.....like SW, Dave, or Tran. 15 car garage the best of everything type....who knows.

This is a build thread and nothing else. If your questions or comments do not apply to what the OP posted then don't post.

Thread cleaned.


I don't want to hear that "my post was on topic."

This may be a dumb question, but with a staging break you wouldn't need to run a 2 step... you would put the car under load using the throttle to launch? I don't know if i worded that correctly but that's my question lol it's kinda like line locks or it is line locks?

This car's color scheme will be up to the owner. It might get the diag. AMS graphics on the rear quarters like Marty and CJ's SCCA T2 cars for simplicity.

The car will launch using a 2 step and slightly loading the clutch while holding the car still using the staging brake.

<--And mine. Give me props too!

Seriously though; just checking out the quality on those welds is amazing.
