Actually, if he reg's it as track, he only has 180 days in the US, before customs will seize the vehicle and auction it. It has to return to the country of origin every 180days to stay legal.

And believe me, i've seen some baller race cars, auctioned @ customs because of this.

If you want to slip the car past customs. You can either:
*Ship to CANADA, then drive here.
*Ship to USA broken down. So, No Engine in Chasis, no wheels on car, chassis up on blocks. But, all the parts can be shipped in the same container.

If i were you sell your car there, and buy some stuff out here. I have some aussie friends i can hook you up with out here in the so-cal/racing scene. But, i dont take lightly to bull(#*#&# so, show me the money.
