If building a car was artwork, IMO this is a masterpiece...

I calculated that I'd have like $25 bare minimum after heavy gas usage, minimum wage ($6.15) 15 hours a week, plus chores at home. Local car wash has openings, I'm planning on checking them out.Unlike other people. F&F didnt have any effect on me. I started looking a year or two ago for affordable cars that could go, and I eventually came up with the Mk3. Dont know how many people you know like the Mk3, let alone is obsessed with an "older outdated version" of a Supra

I like Spoon SW388's and all replica's.
I plan on getting some replica's for my car..I like them very mucho. Clean, simple, lightweight, pretty.
The 240 on Ebay was nice but..I don't think it's worth the 17k buy it now price by any means.

See, I didnt argue with him because I've seen a bunch of his posts, and I'd say he knows his shit

I don't know everything though and I like it when people argue cause it shows there are different opinions and views out ther and I might be wrong(which happens to be the case sometimes) so it's all good to me. I just like to have little debates sometime instead of just telling everything and the discussion being over. Car Talk not Car Class
Yeah, I too like debating. I love it when we occasionally have a debate on TR where no feathers fly, just a true hard debate.
But anyways you have plenty more experience than me and nobody has come up to say something.

Well, I'm not going to put a lot of effort into it until you clarify some things.
This thread is about a streetable car that handles.
What kind of car are you talking about?
Traction has nothing to do with wheel size and everything to do with tire contact patch and a MILLION other variables.

If you think traction has nothing to do with wheel size then you have alot to learn. Wheel size also comes into factor witht he ratio of rpm's of the motor to the rpm of the tire surface and so forth.
So you are telling me pretty much every person that runs 9s or less in the 1/4 mile all use 15" rims for the hell of it.
And Yes I am talking about traction in the state of drag racing, not roadcourse racing or auto-x or anything else.
