I did a Buildjournal V2.0 gallery a while back when I had the blue Volk ZE40s on and now I’m doing another update to show the latest mods. It has changed quite a bit. And I’d like to continue documenting the different phases and transformation this car goes through. So here is V2.1! You’ll see in the photos everything looks dusty. Well that’s because I’m coming fresh from a spin at Chuckwalla less than 24 hours ago from when I took the photos. I was about to clean the car, but thought it would be nice to take photos of a dirty track car.
