- Background & Plans
- I purchased this car for my son when he was 14 and we have been building it together as an entry level track car that we will hopefully will get some time in this spring and summer (2023). My son has painstakingly researched each modification and we chose them for functionality and overall aesthetics. Near future plans include installing a Sparco fire suppression system and Anderson composites carbon fiber doors. Long term plans include an Anderson Composites Carbon fiber widebody kit and Forgeline racing wheels combined with painting the car in Gulf Racing livery colors similar to the Ford GT Heritage editions.
