What's up with those canards? They are sitting a such weird angles they look like a fish's mouth. I think you should lose those and get rid of some drag.

Give us some history on this car! Callaways only really run in that German GT3 series, so it's got to be from there, so you had to pay a pretty penny shipping it to the States. Also, if it's got a fully race-prepped motor, why are you going with a Katech motor? Is it for preservation to keep the car all original or something? Or do these chassis not come with motors? (Just wondering)

Literally the first line of his post;
"It's a roller w full cage, sequential box".

Roller... meaning it didn't come with an engine.

Locks like this car is from Brazil.

Found this video on youtube:

I just upgraded mine with sequential Holinger. Looking forward racing your new toy in Sebring or Homestead this year.

Prob raced in Brazil. I'm guessing it's from Argentina. At least I know the driver is and it has stickers from an Argentine Racing Club. Pretty ironic since my Mom was from there.
