Youtube SL-C on track

[Fran Hall RCR]

Its buried in another thread so here it is on its own...more to come too.

This is an initial shakedown and engine break in...new LS7 with Ricardo.

Very very nice... I posted a comment on there and I'll repeat it here...

I can't wait till that thing is sorted out and to see what it can really do on the track. Sounds insane!! I love that car.

We have another video up.

Was that driver wearing shorts ?

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Iain,

I think its actually a compilation not a single shot video...all on the same day but not continuous..

Ernie runs a race Corvette so I am pretty sure he is safety conscious and would not drive on track in shorts...

 

[Iain]

I thought we were fairly relaxed, but that takes the prize !

Mean looking machine, do I understand you have the Ricardo from the new GT40 as the transaxle ?

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Iain
Thanks for the compliments..

at least 75% of the SL-C's being sold are LS7 and Ricardo packages...

so 18 of them so far have Ricardos...

Was that driver wearing shorts ?

Certainly looks like it.... maybe it's a Floridian cool suit? :drunk:

 

[Craig Gillingham]

thanks for the youtube vids. How did it shake down?

not sure on white rear mirrors. :heart:

is the rear clam hinged? how does it stay open...?

thanks

Yes for moving it around our trailer in the parking area.

Look at my YouTube page and you will see me racing at SCCA event to win and get out of the car in the full suit.

Ernie,
Thanks for posting the vids. Too cool. Exciting stuff. Please keep us posted on project progress.

 

[Ernie]

We will. Next session for the SLC will be in about 4 weeks. We will be at Sebring this coming weeked testing our Corvette.

Are those the "stock" rear view mirrors? Or are they specific to your guys car?

 

[Paolo-LoveGT40 Modelworks]

really impressive..I love it.

Isn't anyway dangerous to make the oval without the rear wing mounted?
That little seems easy to reach 300 km/h...

 

[Craig White]

Ernie, looks & sounds terrific thanks for sharing it with us.

foryorent, they are the standard mirrors supplied with the kit from RCR.

My superior half, Nadine and myself met up with Fran last week in his workshops in Detroit. We were bold over by the quality of his work, amazing engineering and logical solutions. We had just been to see the Saleen and Viper assembly plants, but the visit to RCR was the true highlight of our trip. I was keen on seeing the T70 and 917, which were fantastic aswell, but the SL-C really got under our skin, with its aluring design and menacing good looks. The car will be great for circuits like Silverstone, Goodwood and Donnington here in the UK, and I think it will be a fab hill climb car aswell. Thanks Fran, you made our Detroit visit really special.

NO REAR WING!!!????!!! SACRILEGE!!!!!!! :flameon:

Eveything else is fantastic. :thumbsup:

 

[Jack]

WOW! Great (and really quick) build Ernie! Can't wait for mine...

 

[Jim M.]

We will. Next session for the SLC will be in about 4 weeks. We will be at Sebring this coming weeked testing our Corvette.

Ernie, you're running with SAFE? I'm heading out there with my Panoz with some fellow Cobra guys. Looking forward to it. Remember, I have a big wing but 190rwhp... Just assume I'm pointing you by.

I think the no rear wing is a massive improvement myself. Seriously sweet car.
