    Building 10 sec. car..What does it take?

    Yeah, I know what a 10 sec. car is..n what it means. I'm willing to fix up a car n use it for legal races only... most likely the modifications to it would not be street legal anyways. My friend owns a shop... he's a top notch mechanic... he said he'd help me build up a car for free..just as...

    Leather + Sun = :(

    Might be a ur leather is crappy... or ur leather seating is old..which could cause discoloration. If you can't afford tint, get the sunvisor blocker thing that u open up behind ur windshield to block the sun.

Tinting the windows n getting leather seats is what we plan to...
