    Hi Guys,

    Greeting from far far away – Warsaw Poland, in Central Europe. I joined TW because together with my co-driver we will begin to build a race car based on Tacoma. :D

    Off-Road races in my country are quite different than your desert racing – but I believe that your knowledge about long travel suspension will be very useful. Most of the issues with this project I wanted to resolve so far and looked for answers in the internet I usually have found here.
    Right now we are looking for the right Tacoma as a base car (we need to buy it in States as this model is not offered by Toyota in Europe ) – pretty much we will want to create similar car as Total Chaos Tacoma – but on extended cab version. As soon as we buy and ship the car to us we will start with all the modifications.

    P.S. Forgive me any mistakes up front but I am not native English speaker.

    Thanx guys, it's a long way ahead of me before I will be able to place some pictures from building it. But you can be sure I will - this will be probably the first such project in my coutry so I will make sure it will be impressive.
    Our racing rules limitation (I won't built it according FIA rules as there is to much restrains - this will be what we call "open class") and tarrain itself are different that yours - so I will have to stay with 4wd, but I am olso planning on puting a supercharger (most likely TRD)

    Sounds like a great project & some fun racing.
    You will defenatly have to start a build thread so all your TW fans can keep track of your build progress & wins when completed.
