    1175hp/1100TQ for 36k?

    I'm nowhere near ready to build a car. Like many the debate is between the SL-C and the GTM. I'm still just trying to price out the options. Currently I'm leaning towards the better engineering and smaller build time of the SL-C. As far as I know, the Mendeola Stage II is already available...

    1175hp/1100TQ for 36k?

    Is the Ricardo still worth getting with the new Mendeola SDR Stage II offering. I know FF is pushing foward with the Mendeola and the Ricardo is favored for the SL-C. I'm not sure if this topic has been covered on this forum but I'm pretty sure I read that you had tested the Mendeola in the...

    Nemesis and SL-C photoshoot

    So did they scrap the SL-C article now that the magazine is dead or is it going to show up online? I was looking forward to the article and some nice action shots.

    My RCR "DPE-962X" 8500 RPM -1500HP Engine Build *lots of pics*

    What's the reliability of the Audi 4.2 V8 like? It could be a good option. It's already being used in the Gumpert Apollo and the Spyker C8. It should be a widely available option given its many different applications and trim levels: Audi: S4 (B6 & B7), RS4 (B7), S5, RS5, A6 (C6), S6 (C4 &...

    My RCR "DPE-962X" 8500 RPM -1500HP Engine Build *lots of pics*

    PES - Performance Engineered Systems, LLC $16k for the R8 4.2 G4 Supercharger system. (558hp/437ft-lbs) $8.5k for the S4 4.2 G4 Supercharger system. (490hp/455ft-lbs) Not exactly cheap, but certainly not MTM prices. http://www.vf-engineering.com/ VF Engineering also sells a kit for each...

    Check out this LS intake!

    Could you please explain why the slip fit headers are a "no-no"? Leaks? I'm interested in the Hytech headers for another car and that is the design they use, with what appears to be much success. Hy Tech Exhaust----The Leader in Race Exhaust Technology

    Random aerodynamics question?

    Interesting, I thought about exiting air from the radiator but figured the vents were too close to the nose of the car and that it would be too sharp of an angle. After seeing this image I guess it's true. It's hard to see but it does appear that the air from the radiator is being directed out...

    Random aerodynamics question?

    Can someone explain the purpose of the vents in front of the front wheels on some supercars and race cars? Is it meant to deal with a certain pressure zone, does it contribute to downforce or is it meant for something else? There are many of them but below are some examples of what I'm talking...

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    I saw the pictures of the S7 at his shop in this thread: http://www.gt40s.com/forum/rcr-forum-rcr40-slc-p4-mkiv/30893-other-stuff-rcr.html However, I still think it'd be cool to see the two cars, the SL-C and the S7, side by side for a comparison.

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    I have dreams of building something with the proportions of the Saleen S7 or the Mosler MT900. Both cars command a huge presence and I think a competitor with the RCR build quality behind it would be ideal. I also like the simple yet crisp interior of the S7, much better for a street...
