    So are you sticking with white for the paint, or are you going to go with one of the schemes discussed earlier in the thread?

    I sold my MkII a year and a half ago.... I've been through three cars since, and I barely come here at all anymore.

    It blows my mind that this thing is finally done. Truly an amazing build from any perspective.

    I browse forums for many different kinds of cars including honda's, rock crawlers etc... Out of everything this seems to be the best build/build thread of all time.

    Hoping to see more videos of the most custom MkII on the planet

    I'd be surprised. It's not slammed with huge dollar wheels.

    Looking forward to hearing how development and tuning progress in testing and competition.

    What is the timeline for hitting the track?

    Some more pictures from the weekend, to tired to do a write up now, but I would determite the track weekend as an success, some issues are there that needs to be sorted out, but they are all small ones However I dident get the time to start really pushing it, but it feels neutral and sharp in the corners as far as I got to push it for now.

    These pictures... it just shows the incredible amount of work you've put into this car. I'm just speechless that you've taken this car completely apart, re-engineered everything (suspension, aero, cooling, etc.) essentially by yourself I assume, and here it is on track with no problems!!?

    not fair. I make a few tweaks to my car and I'm spending twice as much time figuring out what went wrong.

    You obviously have spent alot of time prepping the car for the track, which makes your track day all the more gratifying I'm sure.

    Did someone mention a GoPro before in this thread? I think you owe us some in-car video

    I've been following this build since day one... I've checked it's progress everyday since then... I can tell you I am genuinely impressed...

    The work you have done is absolutely amazing!!! Your project continually gives me motivation for mine! Thank you!

    Also, what lap times are you putting down with that guy!? I'm excited to see how she does! Keep us posted with racing details once you get them!!
