Best and most honest , straight to the point description of an SLC ownership experience. Totally spot on Alex, f*ck-yea-race-car , :cool:. Love that

Alex, I’m surprised at the feedback. You had one so you have the real world experience. I thought that is the gearbox they put in the Ford GT and some Ferraris so I’m suprised they don’t hold up.

Jay, reach out to Alex, he has a pretty exotic 917. Enjoy the forum. Regards Brian

Welcome to GT40S Alex. Having that accomplishment of the Cobra under your belt is certainly a excellent start. There is a unbelievable amount of talent on this forum. Be sure when you are reading build threads to go down further to see Lola’s, SLC’s, 917’s, and scratch builds and much much more...

Hi Alex, I was not planning on daily driving it. I live on the outskirts of London and the amount of times I ever felt I needed a car during the year are maybe numbered in low single digits. London transport is so good where I live, I bus it to work and as I result I sold my car a few years...

Hopefully Alex will chime in. I think he’s had his RCR 917 for around 5 years. Regards Brian

https://www.gt40s.com/threads/917-rcr.51418/#post-550263 Ask Alex, he has one running! Ian

I'm brand new here, whats Alex's handle here?

Alex’s Unobtainium Exhaust System might be just a few shekels...

Nice to meet you Alex! 250k into a 917, what items did you machine out of billet Gold? Isn’t that kind of heavy? I’m aiming for a budget of 75k, using the light blue gel coat, and all of my own labor. I have a mill, lathe, MIG and TIG welder, etc. Does the SLC use a bigger tub, or is just...

Might try to get a hold of Alex. He has a RCR 917 and might have some pictures from the build. Seems like there was a French build on here a few years ago also. Regards Brian

Alex, As others have requested - it would be fantastic to see/ hear a video of your 917, as there are not many out there and only one with that wild exhaust system you have.

My friend took a video of it startup/idle a while back ... don't have any driving videos, but it's loud. The titanium adds a different ring to the exhaust note.

Nice Alex! How does the 917 ride compare to the SLC? 917 tires are wider, but how's the grip?

Alex, hows the build going? Do you have a build log somewhere? I'm craving some pics of the 917.

Hi Alex, I took this picture on RCR website. mine will be delivered white with black rear frame. almost like yours, but in a kit form. I will put a race prep Porsche 3.6L. I hope to put pictures of my own 917 soon....

Hi Alex, I remember you are telling me this before. I had ITBs and weber carburated open throttle cars in the past and I am fully aware of what it takes to get them to work. For me there is no better natural aspirated power adder to a race engine, looks and sound like an ITB setup. Not plug and...

Alex, I don't doubt that the standard radiator can "work". My observation was that when I ran my car hard on track the temps first would spike well above 235-240 and then settle intermittently. That first problem was almost certainly pump impeller cavitation. Then once I got the electric pump in...

Graham Yes thanks ! you have the reply :blank: Alex it's a 907 ..... not a 917 :drunk: Just a little smaller .....
