Ever since I last drove my WS6 project (a couple years ago   ) I have been itching to do a new project. So, we are going to start one, but are interested in seeing what you would like to see.

STi Killer
Take a Trans Am or Camaro, and get it to out handle, out brake, out drive and out power an '06 Subaru STi on a road course, auto cross and dragstrip. Focus would be on keeping it driveable and light, while looking great.

10s for 10
99+ Camaro, big hood, big drag radials and some 10 second time slips. Start from scratch, build a motor, nice tranny and a solid rear end all on a budget. Spray the difference if need be.

TT Trans Am
An all out monster. Twin Turbo, 1000+ hp street terrorist. Paint it flat black and let it eat. Put the turbos in the fog light holes and dominate Mustangs at the 1/4 mile.


You tell us what to do!

STi killer sounds very cool but do it with a 3rd gen and swap an lsx it. That would be alot cooler than doing a 4th gen.

STi Killer for sure! now take this idea a little further and set the car up to run at a one mile event like the Texas Mile and also set it up to run at an open road race event like the BBORR, now that would be killer. So, build a 4th gen that can hang with vettes and exotics and be driven daily, bad ass!

While, I myself am a huge street driven, drag race fan, I have to say that the STi killer project seems to be very interesting.  I'm a little behind on my reading, but I have been flipping ahead to those issues and it seems like a cool project and is something different.  I say good call!
