    SL-C 002 build Bob DeNyse

    I teach with a group called Hooked on Driving. The student brings their car and we teach them how to drive it on the track as well as basic skills for high performance driving, it includes classroom sessions as well as on the track. I instruct the beginners, intermediate and the instructors. I...

    Ricardo gearing

    Thanks Alex, wish there was a way to get this done I guess the only way to get to go through the gears faster is to add more Hp it may be cheaper. Maybe NOS. has anybody tried NOS on their SLC yet

    SL-C 002 build Bob DeNyse

    Grant it has been a long time since I played on the games but if I can find one I will definitely try it out sounds like fun. I am a driving instructor for a high performance school and one of the thingss I teach my students is that you drive with your butt and your hands, you feel the car with...

    Ricardo gearing

    Doc thanks for the post, I see the thread ends in 2010 are they still taking names for this or is this a done deal. Also does anybody have a suggestion to get to the same point. If they are not building the sets anymore maybe we can do the same if we can find enough people who may be interested...

    Ricardo gearing

    I was interested to see if anyone has regeared the Ricardo gearbox and if it can be done. I would like to gear the final drive where the car will only do 200 to 205. I can hit 160 mph in 4th and still have 5th and 6th to go. The problem I see is it takes a long time to run through 3rd 4th and...

    SL-C 002 build Bob DeNyse

    I had my car at Roebling Road Raceway in September, had good brakes till the last session and they were getting soft, I am thinking with all the use it probably worked up some air in the system. I have not had it out since and am getting the need for speed again. Can winter just move on where we...

    2013 Daytona 24 Hour get together

    I am going to be there and hope we can get others to show up, so we can compare notes. No input from Fran about this get together I see so far, maybe he hasn't seen the thread but would love to see RCR do some marketing there so people can see there are some neat cars on the street just like...

    Alex is more stoopid now =(

    I used the MCMASTER CARR Part but it is a 275# strut, I posted it but it did not come up, I will look up the part number if anyone is interested. The door after it is half way up will raise itself and after half way down will close on its own. It feels solid when raised and does not feel like it...

    Back to the QR discussion

    Ben after I bought the car I was not comfortable with the steering wheel so close to my legs and wanted it more forward, mine had the electric column and I do not know if that is what now comes with the cars or not. I decided I was the only one to drive the car, so I took all the electric stuff...

    388 views and no one asked the obvious!

    Dean I am the same way, my car has to look good at all times. If you can, you can take the new nose and have them make a mold of it, then take the old nose and they can cut the bad away and remold the nose, will look new and not have all the weight, you now have a spare nose and a mold to repair...

    Dean glad you are ok, and after wrecking my SLC into a guardrail backwards I too have a respect for that car to get away from you. It is so fast that you keep pushing it because it is handling too well. Before long oops. Glad to see you got it back together and get the parts from Fran so...

    Alex is more stoopid now =(

    Alex Grant is right, it is a prop we cut to length for each area. I can say that it was cheap and easy and prevents things coming down to cause a potential scratch or injury. Love the sink you must have had that custom built since not many people put in a sink that small for their shop or home...

    2013 Daytona 24 Hour get together

    I am interested in getting all the SLC cars to the Daytona 24 hour coming up in 2013. I think it will be a great time to show fellow SLC owners your car and we can compare notes on how things are done to see the various ways we have gone about assembly. Let me know what everyone thinks, maybe...

    Alex is more stoopid now =(

    Alex we have had the same problem with doors and hoods closing like this. Because we saw a potential for someone to get hurt we made supports for the doors and the hood and nose so they cannot come down, we almost got hands caught in the door when it slammed. 1/2" wooden dowel with rubber feet...

    Ricardo shifter cable mounting bracket

    Grant, I have found out that the Ford parts department does not carry all the parts and part numbers for the GT but the Ford GT mechanic can access a data base and get part numbers that are not available. Try finding a GT mechanic he may be able to get the part number. I also had to modify my...

    taillights

    Grant I agree this is a one off and am proud to drive it, because everywhere I go out of the hundreds of people I meet with the car only 2 people have recognized it. I just wish Fran would include a little help with some of the parts when you go to figure out how to install it. I am always...

    taillights

    I like the LED version and I will take one of my lights to the Dodge place and see if we can match it up to this without all the remake around the light. Has anyone actually converted one so they know the exact part number? I am concerned about the mounting, there does not seem ever to be a...
