Anyone able to give us a review on their Aero? I understand there are at least a few cars out there running around the tracks now.

Any track reports yet? How quick is this beast, near LMP3 times?

Paul, thanks for sharing! Car looks great. We'll be curious what you think as you continue to make progress and get the car out on the track.

Season starts soon... hope a few of these beasts are running!

Not quite what you're looking for, but since you've had no responses so far it might be the best available: http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-cars-sale/47251-superlite-nemesis-nemesis-sold.html Nemesis Tandem

NASA is changing the rules for ST1 in 2017...going to a 6:1 weight to power ratio and adding a big penalty to "Sports racers, “Prototypes”, monocoque race cars." https://www.nasaproracing.com/rules https://nasa-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/document/document/4272/ST_Rules_2017--v11.1--10-31-16.pdf...

Interesting... it looks like updates to the NASA ST1 class rules for 2017 are going to push the current design into SU or require a great deal of ballast and/or ECU restriction. The new adjusted weight:HP of 6:1 instead of 5.5:1 could be addressed, but the new penalty of -2.0 for prototypes and...

The Audi 01E transaxle would be an example of a supported VW transaxle. It has to be longitudinal to work in the Nemesis. I don't think anyone has a longitudinal DSG box working in a Nemesis at this point - you could take an AWD longitudinal transaxle and run it RWD. You would have reduced...

Looking great! Did Katech name a specific engine life hour target? Based on the output I was thinking it might go for several race seasons before needing a refresh.

For anyone searching for HELOC/HELOAN products, you might make sure the rate (APR) is what you expect and not confused with the quoted premium that is added to the prime rate. These are typically variable rate loans and can easily be at a 10% APR without a bad credit score for high loan to value...

The new RCR website is great! :santa::santa:

Thanks John, that sounds great! I'll be looking for a project in 1-3 years and will probably go with one of Fran's barely-streetable toys or something from apexspeed's classifieds. While right now looking into the windows of the candy shop is great fun, there's no sense in me wasting anyone...

Is there a list of all the cars RCR has made somewhere? The monoposto is another really neat car I can't see listed on his site. I assume volume might be the reason, but RCR has done a lot of neat work that isn't easy to find outside of perhaps these forums. I'd love to see a photo gallery...

I don't think a lot of folks realize that (long ago) CNC machining has given us the majority of the capabilities the public seems to only associate with 3d printing. CNC machines can produce physical parts from nothing but a 3d CAD model, and this does allow for rapid production of unit...

Ah so you're looking for a better box - makes sense. I was assuming one was out there and the programming was the issue. I assume that's why you can't just use a Porsche PDK system (thinking Cayman), but perhaps the hardware costs are too high to justify as well. I have a quick-shift kit on my...
