Those AMC door latches totally do it for me.

I have a soft spot for these cars. Partly because of the ride height, and partly because the brand stole my initials.

Isn't an Audi A3 project about the same as a Golf project?

BMW is well covered.

Mercedes Kompressor? Not interested.

Comon... Please???

A series on budget formula cars would be great. With forays into places to run them (finding formula HPDE and TT outlets, Auto-x classes, W2W), how little you can get away with tow vehicle-wise, ETC.

Running costs for each level of competition with one...

Run a F500 for awhile, then detail changing it into an F600.

I think this is a great idea. Something that hasn't been done before, that relates very well with the Motorsports parts of GRM and that could be eye opening for some.

Please do this but start with Karting (KT100 -> TAG).. Move to Formula Vee, F500/600, Formula Ford. Maybe do an ITC/A car in there somewhere also..
