So it is a lot of show and not much go. But the go is coming.
Yep, the tire sizing (255s on 10.5"?!) and budget tires (Achilles ATRs and Nanking Ultras) alone could have told you it's a stance setup, not a race one. Those tires wouldn't last much more than a lap, if that.

Not to mention the Fatlace sticker.

"a few things"? he needs to redo the entire car. None of that stuff is needed unless he is Sebastial Vettel.

If he is serious about track driving, he needs brakes, brakes and more brakes...cooling (engine, transmission, etc)...clutch that can withstand abuse...sticky tires...and a fraggin' driving lessons. Otherwise it is just expensive for the sake of being expensive and showing off he has a big wallet.

But to each his own.

I meant from the perspective of what you could see in that picture from the most part. I didn't look at his mod list.
