A lot of you probably know by now, but the red civic is now gone. I came to the point where I decided I wanted to do something different and instead of redoing everything I already did on that car, I wanted to start from the ground up again.

It's a track car, not a show car. Any patching like that can crack under the stresses and torsion I'm going to put this chassis under. I also don't like the completely shaved look.

N/a. It's a track car, not a drag car. Should be able to sit right around 220 whp by the time I get it tuned with just a good header, intake and exhaust. With a car this light, there's no real need for 450+ whp that is see with a turbo.
