Better Known as;
The Mountain Dew Car
Where it began
Project Scarlett, better known around Western New York as The Mountain Dew Car, is a 2002 Saturn L200, acquired on May 1st 2026, was originally set out to be a normal daily driver, turned into a street legal drag racing car.
How The Mountain Dew Car Idea Started
A simple social experiment with a bottle taped to the antenna of the car, which captured the attention of anyone willing to interact with me, along with other aspects that kickstarted this project.
What Changed the path for the car?
Simple, Someone had suggested to superglue a can to the roof, and act like I had forgotten the can on top of the roof, because we are all humans after all, we tend to forget things.
One thing Leading to another...
With more and more people suggesting ideas for what had become The Mountain Dew Car, it was made apparent that I was on to something huge.
The rims were repainted to match the theme of the new image of the car, more cans and bottles were added, and the labels from the bottles were cut off and added to the car to continue the build process.
The build progress...
The Mountain Dew Car is far from finished. Many people have noticed this car around and have stopped to take pictures, and videos, and ask questions. I will continue to encourage everyone to do so. If you would like to continue to see the progress of the car, be sure to follow "Libra Biinx" on TikTok.

The Short Story; 1, A tribute to my best friend #LLWQ, 2, Mental health awareness.
The Long Story;
I've always wanted to do something unique, something no one has really done. There is an art perspective to it, as well as emotional attachment, but the main point, revolves around mental health. Mine has been quite the rollercoaster over the past several years. It started on April 30th of 2022, when I had learned that my best friend, who I've considered as a brother, was involved in an accident, with his motorcycle, that took his life. Ever since then, it's been a hit or miss as life had progressed, until around the end of May, the beginning of June of 2026, it hit harder than I was able to handle at the time, due to a chain of events that took place, that resulted in an attempt at taking my own life. From that point on, I was looking for something to distract myself from the pain that life had brought during that time, thus the idea of the car was born. Ever since, the build of the car has progressed to where it is now, while at the same time, healing my mental health in away I never thought was possible. Doing something as unique as the Mountain Dew Car took a bit of courage, with the help of a lot of people I interact with daily, but, as it sits, the project has been progressively paying off. Everyone has life challenges they face day in, and day out. For me, it always seemed to have happened while I was holding a can or bottle of Mountain Dew as it happened, solving problems and overcoming obstacles. At the end of the day, life is short, and there are many difficulties and obstacles that bring people to shut down and give up on things. No obstacle is too big to overcome, even if it take a bit of help and encouragement from loved ones, whether it be friends, family, inner circles, or an entire community. Everyone should be able to be themselves, and I encourage everyone to dream big, and make their stories heard. Anything is possible, if you set your mind to it, and surround yourself with good people. For me, it was Project Scarlett, better known as The Mountain Dew Car. Enjoy life at its fullest, and Do the Dew! - Libra Biinx
