Thanks for sharing. Good to know that you are really putting that baby beast to good use.

Hopefully you can figure out a nice solution to keeping the temps down and the power up! I'm looking forward to what you have planned. Keep it up and drive safely!

Thank you guys !

Every car that we buy we setup for the track use ... this gives us good understanding how much abuse aftermarket/oem parts that we use and sell can take.

Selling parts to the customers is not very hard ... but it's hard to ensure satisfaction of the customer and reliability of the product if we don't test/use them on our own cars

Maybe it's hardly a test but each of those components plays important role whether you are at the track or on the street ...

You don't need to have high hp car at that track ... as long as you have a good grip, brakes and can carry momentum/speed through the turns you don't really need to you a lot of power ...

You can see in the video, we were running with much more powerful cars and 1M didn't fall behind ...

Once we improve some other areas on the car like FMIC, Exhaust, we will add more power ... At this point car feels great !
