AMS Starts its Second Time Attack car TA2

We have learned alot of the past year with our Time Attack car and we have done alot better then we expected: TTU National Champs, WWII overall Champ. Evo Tuner challenge unlimited 1st place, Redline TA first place finish,etc..........BUT..we can do better

AMS is building another one and we are applying everything we have learned over the past season and putting it into effect on the new TA2 (pronounced Tattoo) Car.

We have a shell here that is being stripped as we speak. After its disection process we will send it to be acid dipped. Following her Stay in the hot Tub we will Seam weld the car and go from there. This last season was fun but its time to get serious.

Here are some tear down pictures from today:

pulls paint, body sealer, primer, any chemical off so they can weld all the parts (uni-body) into one solid chunk of speed.
