Default In The Spirit of The Gold-Plated Porsche....

Although it is non-porsche content, some of you might enjoy this (Though I think Brad, rallyguy and I will be the only people who know what's going on in it).

This is what happens when you take a 1000$ mid-80's beater sports car, and dump eleventy-billion times that money into it

Part 1 of the video shows them building it, pulling the frame, installing parts, all in all pretty cool stuff.

Part 2 is the end result, and their attempt at setting the fastest time possible around the Tskuba Circuit in japan.

It loads pretty fast so you guys can skip thru it as you get bored, the timed lap is DAMN FAST though.

Those decals add at least 30 hp to the wheels!

they're Japanese dude....the kanji adds 20 ft lbs of torque as well

In actuality tho, they're a race shop who built that car, which is sponsored by companies and won the JGTC Championship in 2006 so stickers for the win
