A little place to track my buildup

I just started on this last night, so it's very rough. I plan on updating it regularly to track the final stages of the building up of the truck to completion.

whataya think?

Re: A little place to track my buildup

Looks like you got a good start.

" ...I recieved this truck when I was fourteen years old as a hand-me-down from my mother, who had daily driven the truck for about 5 years... "
Cool Mom...

Once you get it built up, I'd like to be around when you tell the others that it was a hand-me-down from Mom...

You can argue with me but you can't argue with figures. Two half nothings is a whole nuthin...

My mom is kinda crazy like that. She drove it with the telestars, slight belltech drop, and exhaust for a long time. She didn't mind it at all

The site looks great.
What kind of numbers are you looking for at the track?

Re: A little place to track my buildup

Honestly, I'll be happy in the 10's. I have little doubt that it'll run in the 9's on low-mild boost.

The other two cars don't belong to me... They are close friends of mine.
