Monstrous Evo Build. I think the flares may have been better blended up front but imagine that may be easier said than done. Overall it seems to serve the purpose though.

The pictures really dont do it justice. Its something you really need to see in the flesh.

Well I can definately see the function in them as they mesh perfectly with the canards on the front bumper. Did this car run the 2015 World Time Attack?

Oh ok, well I'm sure you'll get practice sessions in with all the aero it should be a beast in trials.

I absolutely LOVE the hood. Great build!

Hey All!

J_Hui Design / Photography finally got around to releasing the photos he took of my car at WTAC. I realize there may be some duplicates of what I have already posted, but I am too lazy to filter those out.. haha.*

I see that you said it is now a track car.

Is that cage temporary?
