- Background & Plans
- Building a car that I drive to school, on canyon roads, and on track without blowing my budget as an 18 year old. Future plans include some chassis such as the steeda chassis bracing and steeda upper and lower control arms and for the drivetrain i'm hoping to add a one piece driveshaft after the adjustable control arms as well as a high performance clutch. Exterior plans include the boss 302 front facia in so that I can run ducts to the brakes as well as a tiger racing hood for heat extraction and a steeda functional wing to get some good downforce. My main use for the car is to take it to the track for the first time and many more after that as well as going to lunch meets and cars and coffee that meet on the local mountain road along highway 9 and SR35.
