Nice build, coming together well, engine is sick!

I like how you recommended we "drive our whoping [sic] 250 hp cars", like it was an insult.

Dr*fting is a bonifide motorsport and kicks *** in its own way.
Example: YouTube - Wrc jumps
Try to dodge the hazing from some members here, your build is definitely awesome. Great project.

I love this build. Did you say if you're going to drive this car on the street at all, or will it be a dedicated trailered car?
