Yup, Rob, he's about 5 minutes north of you.

Simon, I don't know his final weight but I believe it's around 2500lbs or less. It's the heaviest car in the series, due to the "UNBIASED" rules towards domestics, and has the smallest brakes, due to the "UNBIASED" rules towards domestics, yet even running with its current stock motor, placed second versus full blown touring cars in the series.  Can't wait to get some real power. It's gonna run circles around the competition.

There are three ways to do things: the right way, the wrong way, and the Max Power way!
Isn't that just the wrong way?
Yeah, but faster!

Best of luck in the series. One day I'd love to turn mine into something like that for race weekends.
What rims are those btw?

It's a race rim, not street rims, but there were no logos on the wheels, and I didn't even think to ask what make they were. I'm sure you could find something similar in a street rim. Anyway, they are 17x7.5 running 205/40/17 Toyo Proxes RE-1(?)

Heh, that's top secret. Let's put it this way, it's a full blown race car.
