Awesome car! Is it going to see much street duty, or is it mainly track bound? I would imagine that (depending on exhaust) a whole hell of a lot of people are going to be shocked at the stoplights!

this is first and foremost a street car. not saying its a daily driver or going to the grocery store. but the last thing i personally wanted was a car that sat on the trailor 350 days a year. i just wanted a car that could run strong at the track and still put around the neighborhood and drive to car cruises.

the exhaust is true duals with bullet mufflers and dumps. the exhaust isnt that bad at idle. the blower is a bit loud and so is the bov

You're making me a believer in the DR again. Impressive run! What tire for a front runner? How bad did it spin down the track?

That's damn good on DR's. That car has more in it. Congrats. Another satisfied customer of FMS. I don't think I have ever read a post with someone not being happy with their work. Looks like they hit another one out of the park.
