Default Progress on project.....
Yes another race car project thread....HOWEVER, I am committed since I just dropped $1700 on the Coil Overs, $600 on the cage, $500 on the brakes and about another $1,000 on miscellaneous stuff....being single aint that bad.





Oh yeah, for those that don't remember what car I am building, it is a 1985.5 Porsche 944. First race in 3 weeks:

Well, after 1 long week of hard work, the race car is DONE!! Yes, I have finally completed a build of an ACTUAL Road Course Race Car. I am here in Savannah Georgia getting ready to run it for the first time tomorrow and Sunday. I will have better pics, and I didn't get a chance to get all the graphics done, but here are two pics. Full in car video to come tomorrow night.

My next door neighbor races a 944 here at Road Atlanta. I believe he just set the course record for his class.

Have fun Mike!
