I've always appreciated and preferred the unusual when it comes to automobiles. Much like taking a 4wd s10 and turning it into a racecar...er truck. I take it the cyclone was your inspration for this project? Either way what are the plans for under the hood? And did you run the course in 4wd? :lol:

....and YES. i would love the chance to ride with a seasoned autox'r. I once spent a weekend at Hallett raceway during their HST event and, by far, gained the most out of my laps after riding with an instructor. I have absolutely no illusions of being a natural at this.
