Peter,
Thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly!
- you were right, Chris is a great guy I have been emailing with him. Thinking about planning a visit soon to check things out.
I hope you don't mind but I have some follow up questions for you...
1. Chris explained how helpful the engine plate is to stiffen up the chassis... this pretty much convinced me that that is the right decision. I just wanted to double check with you that the resulting vibrations don't degrade the "Sunday cruise" ability of the car (so to speak).
2. I would be very grateful if you could dig up the pushrod suspension notes! Are the shocks the ones that come with the Roller Kit?
3. Okay great! LSD it is!! you wouldn't happen to know if any Porsche G96 transaxle comes with LSD would you? I did some reading and think I found that only the 2WD versions (C2) come with LSD... I know you run a different transaxle so no problem if you don't.
4. Which cage option did you choose from Chris? The "Roll Cage front hoop upgrade" or the "SCCA/NASA approved competition roll cage"? The extra pin arm you installed is so cool... Just to clarify that is the only modification you did to the cage right?
5. hmmm interesting fuel tank information... it is funny having two fuel tanks is quite the topic of debate on these cars as to how to best utilize them! I will do some more research. I will keep the "analysis paralysis" comment in my back pocket for later... I think your way of moving forward is a great philosophy...
6. Very interesting... So the general rule of thumb is that you need full R spec racing slicks to pull enough G's to really utilize the dry sump? I will look into the accusump system as well.
7. Chris said that modified roll corvette roll bars are included with the roller package... Why did you choose to use other ones? Just curious.
8. Perhaps the options available have changed since you ordered... but would you be willing to share what other options you got through Chris? I am tempted by the "parking brake kit" and "electric wiper kit" as building those system from scratch would be tough... Thoughts?
I can't thank you enough for your time thus far!
Nick
