I'm looking to build a race car, but I also want to show it off... it's like a 50/50 thing, half each way. I want it to look nice enough that it'll make all cars around me look like ****, even vettes and cobras and then if I raced such cars beat them w/o a sweat even decently hooked up versions. The most money I'm willing to spend is 20k. I just want to build the best car I can for that money.
