Are you familiar with rod ends? They can pivot freely inside the race, instead of the pivoting around a trunnion they are using the ball as the pivot. Works fine as long as you stay within the limited amount of misalignment for the given rod end.

Do not give that man any more ideas. Knowing him a belly pan would lead to a complete rebuild and a new engine. So next year, maybe?

I think I'm going to have to stop visiting this site now that I've got something drivable, and I feel really lucky to have something 99 percent done, because if I didn't I would just find too many inspiring ideas (to steal), and would never finish anything.

Hell, this makes me want to go out and find another project

I agree 110%!!!!


I love the flat bottom and the front air opening. Is there any video of this on track?

They are running two sets of wheels (Kinesis and a Forgeline) depending on the day of the week, LOL.


So perhaps it's the best in the Milkyway on Mondays and transforms to the best of the Universe on Tuesday, LOL.

"flame suit on"

If that is the same car, it's a shame they did all that fabrication and then just "stuck" that chin spoiler on there like that. Looks like it extends to far into the wheel well and doesn't flow well to the rocker area. The rocker flows down and under the car, that spoiler looks like a shovel, down and out.

Simmer down, It's just my opinion. Jeez, I guess no one around here is ever allowed to make a comment that doesn't follow the status quo. And I said nothing about the build quality of the rest of the build, so please do not put words in my mouth. I commented on one single thing.

And to your other point, what has what I built or NOT built have to do with just giving an opinion on something someone else posts on the internet? And I suppose he posted his car to get some opinions, and quite possibly knowing that not everything he did is what everyone else would like. We are all supposed to be grown up, and taking some nobody's critque should be easy.

Without hijacking this thread, it really comes down to picking out the negative side of anything. Sure there are some things we all dislike but the amount of work and vision is out of this world to pull something like this off. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but consider what you like about the car not what you don't. JMO
