About this Current Vehicle:

Bought it as it sits. I'll be adding little touches to it here and there but it won't change too much. It's basically setup 100% the EXACT way I'd have done it myself, in both stance and looks. All I'm going to do is make sure it's running as efficently, quickly, and reliably as possible.

My overall goal is to have a clean, badass looking car I can drive ANY time I want, with good street manners, that'll turn corners and run with the best of them at the track. I won't win EVERY race, but I'll be able to best most cars in either speed, handling, or both.

Some people like go-kart handling with minimal power, others like to keep up with jet fighters in a straight line, sickheads like me...we want it ALL!!! Smile
