I drive it pretty much every weekend but realistically speaking I can only put full power down when its wearing a 15x11.5" slick on the strip. Heh!

Its red, if the whitebalance is off it looks more orange in pics. Its bright red in person!

Here are some pics I pulled from our club forum, I have much higher quality versions along with LOTS of other pics that I'll upload as I have time at home. There are minor differences as the car has evolved over time from these.
