My total investment will be like $6,000 and this will be a car capable of podiums in TXSL, I have no desire for more power than a stock DE with bolt-ons. My s13 was fantastic but I think I have made the best choice for myself to get as much seat time as possible and actually drive every event Lone Star Drift hosts in 2020 (except Texas Motor Speedway because of the roll cage rules of that facility)

Yea, Im originally from Ca where 240 parts are still plentiful, and being out here for the past 4 years has been a constant search for parts. So I get that aspect.
My brother has a 350 and loves its, im just not a fan of the asthetics of them. However, that is a really cheap price for a solid chassis that will be competitive in TXSL.
Looks like I'll be stuck here a couple more years, so I'm purchasing a truck to hopefully make it out to some events this year.
