Meet my dream car, 800RS. Big 6.0L V8 with twin Garrett GTX3576R turbos, 315mm front tires, 335mm rear tires, 3-element front wing, 2 element (6'7" wide) rear wing. It's a monster under construction. With the idea that this will be the fastest Miata-based car in the world, the Exomotive Exocet platform seemed like the perfect choice. I planned out the drivetrain and suspension with people who have raced these parts (and many others). I planned out the aerodynamics with a well-published aerodynamicist and had my wings sent from the UK. All function. Assembled in my garage. The build is meant to be among the fastest non-pro cars in America. It is meant to be shared at public car shows and driven at track days. Most importantly, however, it's built for my enjoyment and I hope you appreciate the build. Ask me anything!
