New project for SEMA
I know this is not a Pro touring car, but I thought you might like to see what we are up to.
We will introduce this car at SEMA later this year. As you can see we have just about finished the plugs and we added a windsheild.

The main body shape was cut with a router. Then we added the windsield, door jams and hood recess by hand. There was still a lot of shaping and fine tuning when the router was done, that was done by hand as well. We will be ready to make the molds off of this plug in about a week.

Pfffff, who cares how you call it. It's just as hot as Megan Fox with the funny thumb!

Man that is pretty damn hot.
I think the cowl and windshield on the rendering looks way better though.
Working on anything in it would suck. It would be cool if you could make it so that with a few mil-spec connectors disconnected and take out a few bolts, you could lift the body off the chassis.Mark Pearce

From concept to reality, the windshield will allow us to add a top and we intend to make a coupe version. I agree, the windshield in the rendering looks best.

Cool car, no reason it couldn't be set up for some fun autocross action.
But think about how everything looks bigger with her little thumb holding it, Ego booster for some! Originally Posted by Happyfunballs
