It is not closed, not sure why it was closed. There were some individual posts that were dealt with from two individuals as they were basically flame bait and attacks on each other. However, the thread is open again for posts!

We are still awating the GT1 kit. It must be on the slow boat! ;^)

Thanks

Brad

The car is wicked fast - we are in the process of putting in an even stronger turbo specific motor as well. The brakes are the totally sick!

Look for more cool mods very soon. Or if you are in the area - you can always stop by the shop and check it out!

Thanks
