          Car looks great, I really like the widebody, Andrew did a great job on all the Fabbing.

            ^ Remember that number is literally for a tube chassis, skin body work, and drivetrain. The thing doesn't even have a floor in it. 2500 is completely believable.

                Yeah. You don't have a full tube chassis.

                  True...I would still be interested in seeing it on a scale. I'm not hating on someone making something, the car does not affect me.

                    You're right dude. Byron only helped build a majority of the car. He has no idea what he is talking about. You definitely know a lot about cars!!

                    Car is sick. Far beyond anything I am capable of. Glad people can respect even if it isn't their style. Looking forward to when it is complete :3

                      Down boy, I forgot it is a complete tubular chassis. I can see that since they are very light. The car is impressive, never said anything about that.

                          It's worth noting we haven't done any corner balancing what so ever. This was immediately after we put it on the scales. It's heavier than I wanted but I know where to lose some weight.

                                Just one. Will you please take it to the track and race against other Gruppe5 cars.

                                When I saw the naked pic, I began to love it. I love cars that are built to perform as hard as they appear to look. And this certainly has the look. Im not a bitter old man and can still change my mind... but only if I see this thing terrorizing tracks. Can you imagine how sexy the picture will be as it drops down the corkscrew at Laguna? Especially if there is a P-car behind it trying to keep up.

                                The Procar M1's sound amazing, so I expect the same from this. Make me a fan Mr Burroughs, I want to be happy and you can help me get there :D
