It's still Rocking the 2az bro...it's all Scion if you ask me simply because of that. It's a tC with a great body kit, massive amounts of weight shaved, and upgraded tranny, built motor, and Still FWD.

It's still a Scion. Now Tanner Foust Drift tC....that is about the only Scion besides the top pro RWD Scion Drag cars...that I would say is more on the side of not being a scion since it's running a Pushrod V8.

i agree. if its not using our chassis and motor combo it's no longer a tC.

you are running the same tranny ? I will second that and call BS unless you post pics and if you do I will personally send you 20 bucks. U heard it, prove to me that you are running the same tranny and you earned 20 bucks.

ya i guess i'd agree with that.

the car i'm assuming is still running the custom penske set up for its suspension.... which i dunno. i was just hoping there would be better off the shelf performance and less extreme mods.

ALOT!! The investemnt was huge and there is alot more involved than just the price of the transmission. We also had to develop a custom bellhouse, custom linkage, custom throw-out bearing, Xtrac shifter & the strain gauge to name a few...

Here is a link to the Xtrac website...

Our gearbox is the 416 Front Wheel Drive Touring Car.
