you guys are everywhere. I think its funny how some articles bash chris rado's car but then they are like oh its a sweet car and it broke the record i just think they still cant believe its a FWD. keep breaking records so you guys keep making articles on every car magazine/ internet articles.

Just wanted everyone to know we won the Joliet, IL race with a 1:30. 4+ seconds faster than ANY OTHER FWD vehicle there!!

Thank you for all the support!

Yep...we didn’t have the time needed to invest in the EFI system so we went back with our trusted MOTEC which we have much more experience with.

That time was so bad that only TWO cars were faster in the whole competition... an EVO and STi. Congrats.

When the AWD tC is on the track, it's a done deal!

Can you give just a small indication of what rear end it will use to create the completion of AWD?


PS....Now only if we can get a conversion kit for consumers to make the car RWD or AWD.

Transmission doesn't cost that much. Before it was posted in a mag I planned on getting a 6-speed sequential at the time the price was 15k and I agreed to it. Come to find out the price would have been 33k so I decided not to. The reason the price jumped up so high is for the custom parts to make the transmission fit the tC. If I had a sponsor I would be using the same transmission.

It was great meeting you guys in Joliet. The car is amazing and I am honestly debating about making the drive and running in the Nashville event street class (I'm comin' for ya Travis). Its a slim chance, but we'll see.

One thing that I noticed were the temperature "stickers" on the front brake calipers. I am wondering where you guys got those from. I think those would be very nice to have to get a rough estimate of the temperatures on different parts of the car.

I thought of you guys and the hype about the front wing when I saw this quote:
