This is gonna be a long one.  I'm starting a new sports car company (hopefully) I'm using my celi's chassis and thats about it. This is going to be a mid(toyota)engine setup with a custom 6-speed a body design crossed between porsche.lambo.ferrari,and lotus.  Carbon fiber an lots of fiberglass will make up the body structure lexan windows to go with it. Hard to explain but It'll look awesome when I'm done.  :rolleyes:  I hope :unsure:
 Tell me what ya think

Hello, i heard you were thinking about joining Toyota Racing team. Me and Tim were talking about it and we think you should join in.

The website needs alot of work and once i get a steady job i'll buy the domain and a good strong host for it.

I can tell you what, I, myself have some good plans for my celica and so does Tim. So if you are interested in making your new car you should go at it.

How long do you think this will take you?

BTW, refer to this Link. all the way down at the bottom is a car you might be interested in. ;)

Probably the body can be done and painted in a few months the engine (i've got crazy plans) will take the longest.  I'll try to scan the design sceches sometime soon.

The Celica chassis is too old, you would be better off using a tubular frame chassis

From what hes told me personally, i believe the celica chassis will do a perfect job for what he wants, there will be a need to ADD to the chassis, but he will have enough torque available on demand to be able to pull that extra weight. With proper consideration to details, the weight of the car should be damn perfect and handling will be great.

 I added the planned weight distribution and I think It'll come out to 49%front 51% rear. And I'll have plenty of torque
