Hello & congrats about wanting the best kick in the pants car you could ever drive !
First of all, there are no,...."stupid questions". Do a lot of research, like you are, to figure out exactly what you want & need and take your time buying or building one. There are several manufactures that have high quality and some that are not.
If you want to chat over the phone I can give you my opinions, as it's always nice to talk rather than typing.
Send me a pm/email with your number & best time to call. Here's mine.
