How much was the engine sent back?

Damn that looks good Tyler, gonna be wicked.:cheers:

Wow. Very nice.:thumbsup:
Are you going with the green color again as well?

That's sexy.:unibrow: Have you considered extending the front flare down to your front facia with a small strip similar to the back?

Hay there Armchair Monday Morning Watercooler Quarterback. We have some carbon plans my brother. Don't sweat it. Is the housing market in Vegas suck that bad that your now DESIGNING cars too.


There is another Buttonwillow the end of this month? Interested Todd?

You know me, always an opinion. Not always right or in good taste.:D I'll get in touch with you later.

Sounds like a great idea!

Very nice car Tyler

I haven't seen it recently to get and exact measurement, but it is set back at least 8 inches into the firewall. The back of the heads are almost even with the base of the front window.

Already in the design process. It will actually be the front air dam splitter/air fence that will extend into the wheel well and add some coverage of the tire. Plans are to have it removable for trailering.

Maybe. I've been toying with white, red, and blue in addition to the factory Rally Green. Haven't decided yet.

Tyler

wa-wa-wee-wa
that just looks f-ing awesome!!! killer job so far Rodger & crew!!!
i didnt know if i was gonna like the bulges/flares at first but they came out perfect!

Looks badass Tyler. You know you have to paint this thing Green right?? :lol:

I think red white and blue would look good. Now where have I seen a bunch cars painted in that scheme?

No. Red. Or White. Or Blue.

Or Green. Or??

1 solid color with carbon accents in satin finish.

Tyler

I'm thinking if you had a chance to view Bob's Iracing stable of specially painted cars and how visible they are from the track when he has spun out and into the bushes you might reconsider. Very visible from on track and very patriotic.

Rodger is just jealous I'm faster in the Mazda, but here is the paint on my race cars.

Those cars make me want to jump the fountain at Cesar's.

Rodger

That's damn funny, and the car looks sick!

We are getting the passenger side caught up to the drivers side.

love this !!
Not feeling those directional wheels though... are those the final choice?:thumbsup:

Those HRE's look great on this car.

Keep the pics coming :thumbsup:

The widebody is wide.

Pass flare is almost done. Needs to be trimmed up to match the width of the drivers side:

It's hard to describe what seeing it in person does. The pictures don't convey the widebody aggressiveness of the treatment very well. It's just...Dominating. Evil. It lets you know you are looking at something that would eat you if it could.

View from the upper storage area:

It's over a half a foot wider than factory. It's crazy. (The pass side flare still has not been trimmed here to match the drivers, so it looks big.)

Engine is setback to the point that the firewall and the base of the windshield will be even.

Tyler looks better than I expected-man- you should wiper her down with some WD40 and "gap enhancing spray" and run it in the rough- I love it:D

Awesome! I'm waiting to see it finished, love it! I hope the empty the engine is leaving in front of it is filled with something awesome (turbos, maybe?)

No forced induction on this car. But all that real estate in the front will get a radiator setup like this:

Tyler

Tyler I like the direction you guy's are headed in.This is going to be a bad a## ride.:thumbsup: Scott

Why do they restrict the air intake so much?

have to roll on a dyno to pass race tech, engines are restricted

Looks tough for sure....:cool:

You might need to send the engine a bit more to the back if you want to fit a radiator :rolleyes: ... It looks awesome!

Hey Playr' Now thats how you do flared fenders! Best I've seen yet.
I'm glad to see your taking your vision to the lext level and not wusin' out on aggresive body lines. Would be cool to have yours and mine shot together in final bare metal.
Has Rodger defined the word TRUST ME to you:hail:

That car does really look aggressive Tyler.:yes:
Great job Rodger and crew.

Love those twisted wheels. Kinda reminds me of a Reventon.

Where are the updates??

Where's Tyler?

Busy getting his hair done.

Any updates??? Or have I missed a story behind this build.

cheers Tim.

I was still a teenager when this build started......:D

Yeah its a long build, I'm not being smart, I had a work accident last year and I had 4 months off work. I was following this build and i'm just wondering where is it at now???

I think Tyler took a job W/the CIA and is no longer in the country.:_paranoid :_paranoid
