iM Feature: Ryan Dandurand’s SW20
Ryan’s MR2 is definitely a car you have to see in person to believe. Being on beyond.ca myself I thought “Redlyne_MR2’s” SW20 project was a myth. That was until Spring 2005 when I saw it sitting all pretty at a shop here in Calgary.
Ever since then this car has gone through a lot of modifications and from the looks of it, there’s no signs of it stopping. What seems like an endless list of upgrades on this whip just goes to show you how much of a perfectionist Ryan is.
As for what’s in store for the 2010 season? New wheels? More CF?
…I guess we’ll have to see this summer.
