So did you not want the suspension to actually be able to flex or is this something you're working out a solution for in the long run? Please don't tell me you're "stance'ing" an Exocet.

is already fixed. i made some tophats to raise the car 2 inches

Saw a ginger guy in an exocet last week on roswell road. know him?

Wow. Wish I had the time, money, tools and talent to pull something like this off.



Instead I will live vicariously through this thread.

all the basics are done.
it will go to exomotive US to work on some small things like possible body parts since they need to be modified for this application etc etc. But mechanically, and assembly wise, it is done. Spins tires through 4th if i so desire.
