Been a long time now since i last posted here. I'm trying to get the rear suspension together on paper before i manufacture it. What i can't figure out is how to handle the type of suspension. Should i see the trailingarms as an extension of the wishbones and thereby make them equal length...

Just wondering if anyone would mind to share some pictures of a RCR40 MK2? I've looked all over the website (RCR's and here) and only found a single rear 3/4 pic on one of the Fran's pages... Plenty of MK1 pictures, but I'm coming up short on finding MK2 pictures Thanks!

Just curious what people have used. I picked up a set of Porsche 996 callipers which are Brembo Mono-block callipers however I seem to have run into a stumbling block when it comes to fitting a disc in them. They use a 61mm deep pad on the front, consequently I have been unable to find a 2 piece...

I'm using a Porsche G96/01- LS3 combo. The rear section of the trans is not supported. I believe I read somewhere some builders are using a rear trans mount. My engine and trans are solidly mounted. Any suggestions?

Chapter One: Mental Commitment, Design Definition, & Initial Build Portland has an adult soapbox derby each summer (http://www.soapboxracer.com/) and an acquaintance of mine built an entry and ran it last year, having a BLAST. I found out about it and decided I had to do it, so I started my...
