The Rebuild begins
After contemplating a few different rebuild routes and trying to be most effective and efficient with our small budget we decided to rebuild in a similar fashion as before but we will be tubing in the front end and tieing it into the roll cage for a safer ride. We will also be putting the new SOHO Motorsports turbo kit on it. And also we will be doing some serious weight trimming and also some new aero all the way around the car. As for now we are gathering all of the necessary pieces for the rebuild and we are beginning the process asap. Hopefully we will be back on track within the next month or two, we have a lot of work to do but nothing we cant handle. Ill be updating with the rebuild process but for now here are a few photos.

Safety First!
If your friends with me on facebook then im sure youve seen this goofy as photo of me (Kevin) that Nik took of me. I went around nascar country today (Charlotte) trying out used seats from cup drivers and I have to say.... Tony Stewart is fat, and Joey Logano is the tiniest man on earth, and I almost needed the jaws of life to get out of his seat. However on the brighter side, Paul Menard and Dave Blaney are the exact same size as me, but Pauls seat was $3,000 so Dave's it was, but damn it fits like a glove and one hell of a deal from 2nd Chance Race Parts in Mooresville, check them out if your in the area. Great aluminum seat made by Butler and makes me as safe as humanly possible, along with the Hans Device. Can't wait to go racing!!!

I'd love to see more of that tubular front end once you get it going. Seems like it clears up a lot of space up front. And it looks like you're doing more than just the front end, seeing those bars are running into the firewall.
Since you're running on a track, do you plan on running a V mount to help keep things cool? Check out the Twins Turbo Supra setup. Specifically part two on speedhunters. Amazing attention to detail.

good luck on the rebuild Kevin. I know you from facebook (pat d.). I hope I get a chance to swing down and check out that tube front frame. I really would like to do that when I go into my build a bit more and take my car back to the track.
When do you plan to have it back on the track?

First arrived in purgatory, many players may feel not ACT1 pressure, it is easy to pass by. The ACT2 feeling various not suited to the RCC, various. Want to continue into the degree they go elsewhere, team friends with can too, but they could not separate based ACT2. This slightly eased until the 1.0.3 update to buy cheap diablo 3 gold, finally pile of dead bodies over of ACT2, but the burden of the repair is really terrible. Trip down to repair one of tens of thousands is a common thing, people feel very helpless. This time, why not go back to the ACT1 go to enjoy the feeling of rolling? After all, the game is to to the strongest Shuangkuaigan Well buy diablo 3 gold. So then this video let you step out of the shadow of this unpleasant. Since Beta after Kaka as we presented the first video works, I hope you like it. If your progress has been compacted the ACT2 enter ACT3, then the video you when the entertainment a look, and perhaps some locations will let you brighten? Here to help players who also slow progress. Mainly about the the ACT1 various MF point.

The people working on this car are people who have worked on NASCAR's there entire lives. They have done everything necessary and then some to get the car back to 100% and then some. We will address any problems we face as testing begins in a few weeks but we are confident there wont be any problems. We run a tight ship over here and when we do something, we do it right.

Updates!
A few new updates:
This weekend we got the new NASCAR seat fitted and mounted perfectly, and awesomely tied into the chassis and roll cage! Safe as humanly possible, so I can go as fast as humanly possible. Not to mention way more connected to what the car is doing than ever before, providing me with more impact.
The beast has also gone back into the beauty! Also notice the completely cleaned engine bay and awesome front tubing and hood bar (bumper bar and rad/inter supports are going in now), all tied into the roll cage and chassis of course. The amount of extra room in the engine bay is unbelievable and the photo doesnt do it justice, I have better ones but we all know im a tease haha.
All of the body parts are now back on the car, except for all the fun aero and cf hood (once again insert evil laugh). Youll love the aero. Tasteful, not excessive yet very effective and mean looking as hell. Cant wait to see the bumper with the block offs and ducting for cooling and brakes. This car is gonna be badass! And it should be on time to re debut at Z Nationals!
Ignore the mesh that came with the bumper, this front end wont look anything like this when its done. Think G35 Nascar style haha.
Speaking of Nascar style, there is the front splitter that was on a nascar before my car and then survived the wreck perfectly which is amazing even if it is kevlar lol
