thats cool, if its a honda, it makes much more sense, that would fall properly with the import crowd, 11 seconds is pretty quick for a honda, so that would work out well. i was thinking that you were gonna build a domestic car, and try to race taht, in which case there is alot of competition out there and from and advertising standpoint, would you want your name on the car that runs 11s or 9s or 8s and lifts the tires. in the import events and such, if ya get one of two WINS, not runner up or anything like that, but solid wins, then things will really start to look up. just gotta make a name for yourself. i think your best bet honestly, would be to stick with the import crowd here, race at etown and stuff like that, thats where all the import stuff goes down, and if ya play your cards right, youll do great. for sure you gotta play out the import crowd, theres alot of money being tossed around there, and alot of people who dont know what they are doing. that is a good thing tot ake advantage of. if ya need any motor help, or want some advise on building it up or something, let me know, im always here.

EDIT:
oh yeah, and one more thing. if your gonna do this, do it right, get all the right parts, make sure everything is done clean and neat. nobody wants to sponsor a car that looks good but cant make it down the track, and nobody wants to sponsor an ugly car that is fast as hell, ya gotta have the best of both worlds. it needs to look clean, have a quick motor, be built with all the right parts, and have a good driver. be very neat with everything, even when it comes down to cutting the plexiglass for the windows, make sure its done neat and perfect. nothing worse then a sloppy car. i see it alot, a car that will be a fast car, like an 88 camaro that i see at the race track alot. ran 8's NA, put a huge blower on it and wants to go faster, but the car looks like ****, and the guy cant stay in one lane for the life of him. car isnt set up right and he doesnt know how to race it. hence why i send him down track by himself all the time
