i think we should have ttz like how andy did with performance nissan or something similar...def need to track it tho..not a bad idea to have bradley or lance be the driver....we need to go to events like ifo and all the autox/drift events around the state and maybe out of state as well....i think we should build more of a daily to show ppl that u can drive ur car daily and still tear it up at the track when need be

BTW i suggest something cheaper for a shop car, then you can put more into the mods =)
A 240sx seems like a good platform to me
