Good luck Thomas, I’d get some decent tyres on it first before spending money on a roll cage.

Lots of plans there Thomas You remind of me when I was your age.

A lot of the ideas you've mentioned I actually wanted too do myself, till I realised that wasn't going too be possible lack of funds and I was still in Secondary school so no full time job too earn cash.


I got slighted on the probe forums years ago because I was doing the same thing your doing.


But I didn't post too often instead I got on with it and did stages too when it was before and after sort thing as many of the owners I didn't think I could do the job till I proved them wrong at the time.

My advise is the Proof is in the pudding, Say about your ideas and then if you want too or if your parents willing too help with money wise go for it my favourite saying don't just say DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep up the enthusiasm as its that can go along way, At the same time also realise your limits when I started working full time I knew a lot of things I wanted too do couldn't be possible at that time but now its a little easier but not by much.

Wanted too ask have you moved house recently?

Here's an idea what I was doing when I was your age.
