I'm watching Gearz while browsing the forum and they are doing a feature on the SuperLite SLC which is a light weight kit car. I found their web site and thought I'd post it for anyone interested in checking these cars out. The kit (less donor car for drive train) run right around $20k. They look like a pretty neat project.
