Quick, that looks pretty cool. I figured a 2.3T Fox would be tits on the track. Its an able chasis with minor mods but pulling a 100 or more pounds offthe nose has to be great for the dynamics. I would imagine with a battery relocation and a tubular K-memeber that the car should be damn near 50/50 weight distribution

Yeah the thing runs hard and flat out handles. Tubular K member, Cobra 4-wheel discs, Maximum Motorsports torque arm and panhard bar, through-the-floor subframes, 4 point roll bar, Bilstein coil overs, the list goes on and on.

He got the car when he was 12 with a blown 2.3 and first restored it with a stock 2.3 turbo from an XR4T-i then went to a mildly built Turbo Coupe motor, then to a more aggressively built turbo motor when he decided to get serious about road racing...the last 2 motors were blown up on track, haha...and he has just dropped in his most ridiculous motor yet. I have yet to see it run with the newest motor but if it is THAT much better than the old one like he says, I'd hate to come across it on the street with anything less than a termi cobra, and even then he would dust you in the twisties. The first mildly built motor would put a car and a half on my stock 5.0 with ease.

GTO, I would wager you $100 that on a road course I could take my Mark VIII and wipe the floor with you in your Fox.
You know I dont walk around here saying "Oh man, im the best at XXXXXX" but I am so confident in my road course driving abilities I know I could wax you. Its just the one thing that I was a natural at. The last time I raced this was what I pulled in my stock 89 AOD GT
1m03s per lap. Ok, since you dont know what the course layout was here are some of the other cars from that day:
1996 BMW M3: 1m09s
04 STI heavily moded: 1m05s
Gutted late 80s 5 series: 1m12s
03 Termi vert 490rwhp: 1m10s
300Z twin turbo: 1m09s
Mini S: 1m04s (thing was crazy quick on the course)


I fail at allot in life but driving is not one of them bro.
