No, I am probably going to hold off until the whole package is available. We are still wanting on the heads to be completed and production started.

Then again, I could use the new upper and lower intakes.

 

Well,
After putting the front end back together it now has to be taken back apart.

The good news...new Koni Reds with custom valving are going in.

 

new Koni's are in.

On a different note, looks like Fuel Safe decided to use the car in their Catalog in on their Home page.

From the home page:

 

Why did you have to take the front end back apart?

You're becoming popular with all this front page attention.

 

New suspension geometry that required welding new mounting points.

We also pulled the diff out for new gearing and all new suspension on the front.

 

Sorry, I am way overdue for an update.

New brakes are on as well as the new Dual Masters and balance setup. Pedals have been moved and adjusted.






Huge new brakes:




New Konis, springs, and purches are all in place:




Next is the new sensor feed data system.

I have updated the slideshow, race resports, and schedules for the season:

Go to the 2011 season to see last years reports and videos.

 

On this topic it looks like the first race will be a slaughter.

The heads and top end engine package just started shipping Friday and only a couple of people have gotten them. At this point I see no way to get one in and installed before the March 24th race. While the package doesn’t seem to make much difference under 4500 RPM, there is a huge difference from there to the 6000 RPM redline to the tune of an extra 120 HP @ 5800 RPM. It will be interesting to see the time differences it makes and where on the track it will be most apparent.

 

Hopefully no one will have the extra engine parts in. Car is coming along nicely.

 

Unfortunately JG, the guy that broke 4 class track records last year in the old spec was one of the 2 that got the package, he is an East Coast guy and a regular. He is one of the two FFR factory-ish drivers so a little favoritism going on. Still a super nice guy and plays by the rules so I can't fault him at all.

 

Well, FFR decided to make a video from the first race weekend.

Pretty cool video Marty. You guys picked up some huge time. I can tell from the view in car video shorts, that you guys have a ton more hp. Good luck this year!

 

lol,
They have a ton more HP. I am still at the same but the handing and brakes are much better.

 

Congrats Marty, that car of yours sure is starting to get popular
