Snap Oversteer,
My advice to you is,
I would go to a spec miata class. While kart racing is a blast, it does not give you the same experience as a car does. As far as making a carreer out of road racing, that is a tough one. Look at road racing as having fun. I would do Grand - Am again, but the rides are few and far between. I am working on a Grand Am DP program for later this year, and that is a long shot. As I tell my racing students; You need about 4 Million dollars to become a pro driver these days. As far as racing schools, they are great if you have disposable income. If you are on a shoe string budget, I would hire a driver coach and do a track day. The driver coaches are about $500 for the day and are well worh it. Since you already drift, you are ahead of many racing students that don't have the car control experience. If you need a coach, drop me a pm and I can hook you up with some of the best in the business. They can get you over the plateau. I hope this helps.
hollywood,
I might be heading out there, just have to work out some details.
Hillkill,
The exhaust on the 180 is an all titanium exhaust from Japan. Koguchi put it on the car. He is out of his mind. As far as the Brand, I would have to ask Kevin Wells from LS Automotive.
Thanks!

so i really have no clue what im doing. If a cuda would make a good drift car and i actually decide to do this, what would you recommend for suspension setup? This car is pretty far gone so i have no problem cutting and welding it and its going to be a long time b4 i could finish so money isn't an issue either. Also, where should i mount stuff like the gas tank cause i know weight distribution is also pretty important. Is there anything else i should do to the car that im forgetting? Thanks for the help.
