2010 was a disaster with not one competition round competed in due to mechanical faults and issues at every round I entered, all of which happened in morning practice sessions, overall I blew:

2 gear boxes
2 engines
1 wastegate
3 turbos

I set my sites for 2011 and with all the problems I was having and the continued advancement of drifting with regards drivers and machinery I knew I had to increase the spec of the car

I decided to go for a full rebuild. To include
Cosmetic changes, full wide arch kit, changes to graphics
Strip and paint engine bay
New steering settup to achieve more steering angle
Full rewire of the car which placed all fuse boxes and battery inside the car
Fully rebuilt engine with the spec capaple of 450bhp
New turbo

All work carried out by myself and help from friends
Due to the spec of the engine I decided to let someone with the expierence build it so I turned to Richard Bradley as he has a lot of expierence with these engines

I am going to be competing in the udc and prodrift in 2011
