Style trip next year would be sweet! I thought about using Carl's fwd laser as a group project car awhile back but didn't really pan out. I've always thought build a fwd light weight drag Dsm/colt would be sweet.

FWD, frumroll machine, I still think Honda when I think that (k20a2 machine, like my old RSX but in a old civic or something) but that in a DSM is so crazy it just might work.

LOL sounds about like the budget beater. Too bad it's on basically no budget!

The k24 frank would be my choice for any 4-banger application, boosted or non. However, the dollar per hp of our dumb old iron truck motors (4g63) is hard to beat.
That being said, we could take a page out of Honda's book and provide a silly amount of airflow with reduced cylinder pressure to further keep the costs down. God, this car would suck at everything but racing liter bikes... might be fun.

I'd know a few liter bikes that'll run anything! haha
I'd be down to help wrench on something. I've also got a kirkey and nitrous setup I'd loan out to a donor car!

I have an awd shell we could use as a platform if this get serious.
Or we could use my 4 dr mirage already have a built 2.4 and 37R. Its light and could be the perfect frumroll. Lol
I too wanna go to this someday

Would be fun. I tried to kind of organize something maybe a year ago with carls laser, but money, time, space was kind of tough. Plus the debacle of everyone coming to the same decision, who owns equity in it in the end, etc.
But ill go ahead and say that I can put $500 rigyt now into the mix to be part owner of it for starters if we can figure out a way to make it work. I have no space though. Would be sweet to take it to the strip as well. Drag and from roll monster.

Anyone think a shop would help out or give us space to work on the vehicle? I also have a 6 bolt motor and head we could use. If enough get invovled maybe start a thread or something.

I will have room come spring time. I might be able to store the car at my house. on the weekends I pretty sure we could use my works shop. I would be willing to help out in this if we can all agree on stuff.

I think the hardest part will be getting everyone to agree on some sort of terms. People will bump heads if a few invest a lot, and others don't yet still demand equal partnership. The smaller and more dedicated the group, the better.
Just my opinion.
