Nice video John

 

cool video

 

Looking good. I wish I lived closer to your shop.

 

Great video. You could make money in northern Virginia with the hundreds of racers in the immediate area. In fact I have a project that you could do easily but would have to be here. Want me to find you some shop space? Bob

 

Professional looking promo ad! All you need now is airtime on the Speed Channel and nice paint job. 240Z's rule. Have you entered any of the recent time attack series?

 

That's for the relocation offer Bob, but I'm a California boy, born and bred.

Most of the work I do is the heavy lifting, dirty part of the race car build so I prefer to get the car from the media blaster before the nice paint job is applied. The multi-color 240Z in the video is basically built up from a shell and parts from three other 240Zs.

Did anyone notice the engine in the car? Its an Aristo 2JZGTE that is planned for about 550hp with an overall Redline Time Attack win goal (the car's being built for a big shot at Hitachi/Tokico).

 

John at Beta is also the unofficial official fabricator for SportsCar magazine.... Look for his handy-work to appear in a number of issues in 2008.
