Car is almost ready!! I'm 80% ready for this weekend, sooo excited!!
What's the 20% that you're missing haha? I'm excited too!
Flip tires, install front/rear brake pads, put my wing back on, bleed the brakes and either top off oil or change the oil haha

Yeah the cammed pushrod v8 sound is simply SEX. And the reliability of an LS motor paired with the FD chassis is just icing on the cake. I hope once this thing is sorted out its just a rocket on wheels.

Alex - I really just want a fast grip car, and the FD has always been a dream for me. I just could never do rotary. Maybe we can drift sometime and you can teach me though

I am jelly.

I've debated buying a FD chassis and dropping in a twin supercharged F22....
