Seen this car in background of some of your other photos/vids. Looks great. Glad you made a vid and shared it with us. Damn nice gift. I'm showing my son the video.

P.S. Would love to know how these RWB creations actually drive. Fully functional on the limit?

Looks nice but usually they seem to only have some low hp n/a motor in them.
Hope this one has a commensurate power unit to match the awesome looks!

Leh, always wondered if steering feel might be a little goofy towards the limit with the significantly altered scrub radius. Good video though.

Ive never been at the limit with this car.. But it drives nicely just cruising around and having fun... We aren't trying to make a racecar out of it.. Just more of something to enjoy and cruise around with.. But i have never had a single fender rub or anything like that in the car which is pretty amazing.. You would think it would be rubbing all the time!.

We disused doing a turbo but have decide to build NA.. So at the end of the year this car will be getting a 4.0 big piston kit built engine.. It just seems to want that more then boost.. Also will get more suspension components.. So will be a complete package after that..!
