Build story
As soon as I bought this car, I knew I wanted to go as fast as possible in it. Straight line duty was nice, but I wanted to handle. I wanted to feel the G-forces all around. So, I gradually upgraded what I could, but was never quite satisfied. I knew what I wanted to do all along, which was replace the whole suspension system with the Griggs Racing setup. So I saved up for that, and it has totally changed everything! Having that system making the car so good makes me want to make the rest of the car just as good to be able to catch up to it. So I have been upping my fabrication skill and attention to detail to make my car worthy of what the suspension is capable of. That includes building my engine to withstand 7000 rpm with no issues, making my cooling system withstand A/C and desert cruising and track days, cleaning up the wiring, and making it generally more appealing.\r

And though the engine is currently not in it, that should be solved in about two weeks.
