Nissan 240SX Team Project car!!

Ok I'm just going to put this out there and see if anyone is interested. This was not my Idea this was Andrews and I thought at first that it was kind of crazy but now I think this team should really start working on a project car to take to events and perform. The reason we should go for the 240SX is because the parts are cheap its a nissan the car looks good and they are real easy to work on. If nobody knows what I'm talking about this is a project car that the team will buy to fix up and perform at drag/drift competitions. After the car is bought and fixed up to competition ready we will do our own try-outs to see who can drive it better in ether drag or drift.

Thats funny I was actually thinking about buying this car as a beater...http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...dist=145...the body looks good...this idea sounds like a good idea...I prob wont be able to contribut much money wise...but wrench time for sure...I also found a 240sx in the Dallas area for $1200...I would rather do a 240sx...especially if we are going to drift it...it is a proven winner in that area...it might be harder and more expensive to set up an older Z for drifting...

Wow running 10's, is he on the bottle? Sponsors? I think we have to purchess the car and if we can find a sponsor that car get us deals on parts that would be great. This car should help us to get our team name out there and to be a real competiter in the sporting events.
