Just saw this thread. Is it too late to get in on the order?

Howard, I sent you a pm today.

Sorry for the delay getting back. I did pay sales tax. 6.25% on the invoice price from RCR ($70k)

Hey Howard, I am thinking of going to this event with my SLC. We have finally got it more or less sorted out. It really flies!

Got mine. Thanks so much John.

Hi Micheal, do you still have the Penske shocks and do you still want to part with them? My car is now a 98% track car and I could probably use better shocks.

I am out of town for a week but I will post a picture of how I mounted the reel the reel when I return. The only thing the "helper" spring does is keep the hydraulic lift cylinder in place a will not allow it to un-couple from the spring. It has no appreciable effect on the static or dynamic...

OK, the helper springs are Century Spring part number 3110 and as a bonus, they offer these nifty thin cable reels that are spring loaded that I use to hold the rear clam shell open. They are spring loaded so the cable reels in to the unit when you close the clam. super strong and cheap. They...

I run Pirelli PZero dh racing slicks. I shoot for 29-30 hot 165-190 degrees.

I found a spring from Century Spring in LA that perfectly fits between the shock and the coil spring . It is about 5.5 " long and has about 35 pounds/inch. I have the hydraulic lift mounted above the spring and this helper spring keeps it in place on full droop. I can find the part number if...

Thanks Fran!

I sheared the splined stub axle where the spline ends. Both left and right side axles had already twisted and the right one finally sheared on track (corner 5 at Texas World Speedway). I had already ordered new shafts from RCR and they should be here soon but why should the replacements behave...

Like Tim said. No annual inspections. <I sure hope nobody notices how I spell experience sometimes.

Haven't got the official title back from the state yet but my understanding is it will be titled a 2015 RCR SL-C.

!989 Mercedes C9

For those of you in Texas who have yet to title their cars, I just titled and registered my car here as a custom car Replica. It could not have been easier!! I just faithfully followed the instructions for a later model Replica (vs the pre 50s ). The biggest deal is I had to get a one time...

Cam, WRT the hubs I have been told that the c4 hubs are not particularly robust hubs. The right side hubs (front and back) failed after about 500 track miles. Most of those mile were at Texas World Speedway which is a somewhat rough track. Also, Full disclosure, I did spin over a low curb...

John, Per our conversation about the hub sizes and potential rotor swaps as I mentioned on the phone the c4 hub diameter is 2.78" and the 2010-14 hubs (and therefore rotors) are 2.65" so the rotors that we use for the Brembo setup dont work with our hubs. This perplexed me mightily. A phone...

Howard- I have the brembo calipers that come on the 2010-14 Camaro SS (among others). I found a great website that lists many of the important dimensions for doing brake swaps for late model GM. (GM Brake Upgrade Option Measurements - Thirdgen F-body Brake Upgrade ) The Brembo front...

I went with a left side scoop. I made a plenum that pancakes to fit around the rear cage support bar and over the suspension. It is really ugly so have acquired a scoop for the back from Jack and am going to eventually change it to that setup.
