    And so it begins... my Lancia 037 tribute build

    Hey John, Nice to see you doing something with that 360 you've got. Looks like a cool project, should sound GREAT and I'll be following along from afar. At least you know somebody who can do the electronics ;-) Still have a 360 transaxle if you have a need.

    McLaren M20#73

    Getting phrases from other parts from the world is part of the fun here :) "A bit of a roady on the other side of the ditch" "Can't wait for the sanding to end" Never have words so true ever been spoken (when it comes to fiberglass fabrication)

    SLC technical questions

    "Superlite" is a marketing moniker. Representing a general desire to use light weight materials to build a reasonably light car at a reasonable price point. How unreasonable you are from there is entirely up to you.

    SLC 24 Howard Jones

    Did you mean to say "200 mph"? Seems unlikely a 200 HP car that is only capable of about 125 mph terminal could cut that lap (?) I like that LIDAR fuel gauge, I'll have to keep that in mind for possible future needs.

    SLC 24 Howard Jones

    That's pretty cool Howard ! Going faster is definitely harder on the car and the wallet. A 5 second jump in one lap is immense, do that a few more times and it will become second nature. Soon, a 29.3 will feel slow. Happy to have provided some inspiration ;)

    SL-C Driving Experience

    Much of your driving experience is going to be dictated by your ability to set up a chassis, your suspension part selections, tire aspect ratio, power, insulation decisions, on and on. The result will be as individual as you are. Any "production" Supercar has a fleet of engineers working out...

    Mazzei Formula 5 Rotor Turbo SLC

    One heck of a build! That nose structure is stout for sure. Where your "coolers" are is where my AC condensers are, they freeze the evaporator :oops:

    Manta Cars

    I just saw a video you had done on this car, good stuff. From the color of your hair in some of the shots ..... you've had it for awhile (?) :D

    Manta Cars

    Neil, Were are all certainly pleased you are feeling better. Any shots of the interior and engine compartments? What are the blocks under the fender mirrors? Jongbloed (sp?) wheels?

    How fast or quick are the SLC's?

    Looks like that same car did a 34 !!!! one year as well. That is insane fast.

    How fast or quick are the SLC's?

    That's going pretty good, I think that would be good for pole in the 25 hour depending on what shows up. IIRC a full-on current carbon-fiber-everything LMP car went a 39 to set pole recently (I think I'm remembering that correctly).

    SLC 24 Howard Jones

    Randy, Are you saying the residuals can reduce a given amount of pedal travel? Both Howard and I have the Wilwood residuals currently.

    Isle of Man TT fastest ever lap 136.358mph

    Never had the desire to run IOM, probably because I was a late starter in my MC racing career. Although, I certainly have respect for the the men that run at the front of the Senior. Not only can they process at the speed of light (comes with the territory), the more important thing is the...

    Homebuilt Mid-Engine Sports Racer

    I have been waiting impatiently for the next M6 Twin Turbo build video. Ahhh Charlie, always easily recognizable in the obligatory Hawaiian race crew shirt!

    LS7 Crate Engine Track Use Upgrades

    Low or inconsistent oil pressure could have "done" your crank bearings in short order. I would not be surprised if the rod bearings showed similar wear. In my racing days every time the engine came apart it was standard procedure to replace all the clam shell bearings.

    917 Del Mar, CA

    LOL.... No truer words. And yes, those are high pressure fuel injection lines running on top of that fender liner. Not the best place - would be a huge understatement! Cool build, would love to get more information on this. I'd be interested in seeing how he is ducting air to the radiators.
