The focus of this club is based on OEM+ look with heavily modified performance and tuning.

* NOT stock and plan on many modifications in the future
* NO Lambo doors, Under glows, or excessive modifications
* Upgraded sound package or engine modifications
* Upgraded rims and suspension
* Dedicated and willing to participate in car shows / meets and automotive events
* Car needs to be unique, command attention and be able to wow people
* No current team obligations
* Magazine coverage, awards and current sponsors will also help greatly
