    no dumb questions:

    it will run in NASA/SCCA

    GTS, ST and a few other categories depending upon the power to weight I want to run:devil:

    We will sell a turn key car down the road for those that want less power and less features to fit your budget

    Quite amazing Jan. You said you plan on making this a product?!? MINI by name, steering rack, engine, and body shape only. :)

    Just curious as to where the design for the suspension kinematics came from. Was it borrowed from another setup or were they all done from scratch?


    2 longevity questions; why no inconel for exhaust manifold studs, and how are you structurally supporting the turbo? The thin-wall won't hold it for long at full EGT.
