The challenge was to build this car to not only just do 10 seconds but to do it with race track handling, drag track handling and with comfort. This has, and still is proving to be ‘one hell of a challenge’. Through many mistakes, mind changes, job losses(GFC), depression.... I have pushed myself far beyond what I ever expected. This really has been a long project filled with lots of smiles and frowns along the way! I don’t expect it to be finished until late 2015. Although recently, the project has gathered momentum and the excitement is following...
I have run this build on 2 forums since its beginning but on putting it on here I have organised and commented to the best of my memory on the pics over the last 6 years. There have been small and large changes over the build as well so I haven’t included some of the old pics from the other forums.
