My first post!!!
I'm looking at building fun AutoX and Grassroots Motorsports Challenge (GRM) car.
For those not familiar will GRM challenge, you have a budget equal to the year of entry to build a car. In my case, I'm shooting for 2013 ($2013 to build a car). The car will compete in three events: AutoX, drag race, and concourse. My entry will be nothing more than pure automotive fun . . .
Anyway, since the budget includes the cost of the car, I have to be VERY selective where I spend my $$$$.
So far, I found and awesome roller with S10 axles, lsd and 4.10 for a decent price. I also found a cltch pedal assembly as well.
I'm thinking about adding:
Vortec 350 + LT4 hot cam
T-5 (already have)
17x9.5 Corvette Wheels (already have)
Big front springs (factory G body or S10)
Rear springs ????
98+ Camaro brakes
Shocks ???
Gutted to the max (ballast back to race weight ~3050lbs)
I think I can pull the off well under that budget . . . What say ye? Suggestions. . . Hints . . .
