But does it ever run!? The thing had mechanical problems in the SCC competition as well. I think it's cool and all, but if it is never in good running condition what is the point?

Oh, and nice hatch, what class are you running in? What is your suspension setup and are you happy with it for auto-x?

No brake upgrades? I would like to auto-x my hatch for fun, but when Im done with it, I am sure I will be in a class out of my league. I think I already place higher becuase I changed my brakes (all disc).

I know I am going to catch hell for this comment, but that car from SCC is garbage. The thing broke down in the SCC competition and apparently, it breaks down just about every time it goes to a track. What a P.O.S.

Your hatch on the other hand is very nice...

hehe, sure i have brake upgrades, i just dont consider it part of the suspension

Fastbrakes 11' front kit using teg calipers and hawk hp+ pads, rear is a full disk setup from a teg using sloted rotors w/ stock pads, neuspeed lines all around, teg booster and prop valve

having fun is what its all about who cares what class you end up in

top end is very nice, pulls nice and strong all the way to 8k, but i love the fact that i really dont have to rev it to make some nice power (for example i am making 115 ft/lbs of tq at 2500 rpm )

how did you do the teg dash without having that gap on the sides, looks very clean, and those doors are sweet.

looks great man, but for the love of god, angel eye projectors? man, stock headlights are sooo much more attractive, and actually put out more light. even with HIDs.
