Default Ran into a racing enthusiast yesterday

I went yesterday to connecticut to pick up a some diesel parts for my truck and ran into someone who isnt on the forums but has a very nice car he races at Limerock. He sent me some pics of his car so i could post them and he makes all his body work on his car. The front fenders, doors, rear bumper, front splitter, rear quarters and rear lid are fiberglass composites which he makes. He has gotten the car down to 2000-2100 lbs he said and can is running a 225 wide tire right now but is gonna go wider. Here are some pics of the car. Let me know what you think and let me know if you are interested in any of the parts i know there was a thread alittle while ago about the the front splitters and his looks really good. Comes way back under the engine like the mugen front bumper for the jdm front end.

i just took a look at the pictures you sent me. they are too low of a resolution to do anything with. sorry, i'd imagine he has some larger pics if you ask him.

Really? I didn't know he had moved. Is he still in the ATS business? Am I at least on the right track in remembering that he had an EG hatch painted like that?

Yeah he's out west enjoyin the California girls. He's no longer with ATS. He is starting a different company according to what Rodney told me the other day. He still has the EG but it's not painted in those colors.
