Front coil overs, bump steer tie rod end, adjustable end links and spindle ducts.



Rear coil overs, note the safety wire around brake bolts.



Fabrication of aluminum front brake duct.



More fab of duct.



Fitting of front duct.



We are going to use the stock brake duct opening and run ducting up into a new air box to supply cold air to the intake.

Continuing to make progress!

What is that wire for?

What made you decide to DIY rather than buy one of the couple existing options on the market (DRM,...)?

I want me next.... Nice setup

The wires prevent the bolts from loosening up under extreme conditions. A hole is actually drilled through the head of each bolt, allowing the wire to extend through the bolt, thereby preventing the bolt from ever loosening or backing out. Not necessary for your daily driver, but an important feature when slowing your car from 150mph on a regular basis.

There is no existing option that I'm aware of that replaces and incorporates the factory hole left by the running lights. This system will allow significantly more air flow. It also allows us to utilize the 4" factory hole underneath the car for an air supply to the new air box.

Interesting! Is that a common practise in the racing world, or something you came up with yourself?

Oh, right. The existing options use the existing holes, they don't replace the running lights. Very cool idea (pun intended). You should mass-product your design and sell them, as a way to fund your racing adventures

I wish I could take credit for the safety wires but that goes to Russ Nyberg, owner of Racetech. Russ has done a tremendous amount of set up and fabrication on the car. He has been involved in virtually all levels of car racing for the last 30 years including work on a NASCAR crew. The safety wiring is standard practice for him.

As far as the inlet goes, that's not a bad idea!!

Safety wiring is also a standard in the aircraft industry, or wherever there is personal safety inbvolved. Looks great Todd, so when is the Scream'in Lizards inaugural run?

Saturday, 3/14 at PIR!! Would love to see you there!!

Got the bump steer adjusted last Friday. Work over the weekend consisted of finish fabrication of the brake ducts and electrical work including the installation of the transponder, fans and emergency cutoff switch f and some other switching for various cooling fans and cool shirt.

Tomorrow the car gets a proper road race alignment.

It's coming together!!
