He can pedal too which is important in something like that, all be it with a much smoother and tamer style than AndyG of course!
i like his car as a road car and dont think making his car a track car is going to be the best way
the way to go would be start with a group a rally car and bung his engine in it,
thats where many people go wrong, they build a car spend 20k over what it would cost to do a grp a car then winge when its not as quick
