No disrespect to any of the builders or the cars. But it looks like a fairly soft field for the Ridler compared to other years.

Not that I could build any of them to that levee of quality.

The Riv has twin turbos mounted under the rear glass. There is a air to water intercooler then it runs up that headliner duct to the throttle body. It sounds like a cross between a jet engine and an iron lung. Very cool.
Thanks for all the pics.

Cheers to JF, and all that worked so hard on the Riv!!!

Gary, it would never have happened without all your hard work and expertise.

Makes me feel even better that I gave JF a bunch of my money to do my car....

Can't wait to see the pictures! Thanks for the explanation. I could see the pipe running inside the interior but didn't know what it was for. Congrats on the win, too!
