hahaha!!!! tell him to just light a few $100 bills on fire with his map torch, have a beer and cigar while in his garage being happy he did not go down that rabbit hole.

building that into a track car will cost 3x what you could likely sell it for after "track(ing) it a bit". it's a great platform to start a build from, but you need to be committed and have a ton of money to put the map torch too.

I got 50 cents on the dollar from my racecar build when it sold, that's not including the hundreds of hours I spent building it from a road car. would not trade the experience for anything, the build, the racing, the people i met and even the money spent, and lost.

still check in on my thread from time to time like a walk down memory lane
