I thought it was just me; first tried an hour or so ago, and no pics.

I'll check back later.

ultimate teaser thread.... Canada 1 the rest of the anxious world 0

edit, can see them now....i like where you are going with this.

That is a lot of down force. How about rigs that wrap down to the frame?

I can see the pics this AM and I am on a 3G mobile.

I think this may be the best front flare treatment I have ever seen. As for the valance it looks like you might be planning on a 69 style light by some sharpie marks? I think that would be a good idea. Anything to spot wayward raccoons!

The front, like the wing says "I'm a racecar!" And if any 1st gen has a right to wear them OLC does! It reminds me of Lightning McQueens' opening line in Cars I... am Speed. That's a total compliment in the sincerest sense case it doesn't come across that way.

Now, as for the wing.... when I first saw it the lifelong 1st gen fan in me went "awe... really?" but... as I said above OLC has earned that right, then when I read about the tech within the wing and it's capabilities I am thinkin' Hell Yeah!

Thanks for sharing James.

Thanks Robert! The sharpie circles were actually for brake ducts but I thought that the 3" openings were out of proportion on the front so we've moved them. We will (most likely) end up with some Speaker 4" driving LEDs in the lower valence which, in combination with the 7" LED headlights, should solve our night-time driving issues.

I'm hoping that all of these changes work the way we hope. If we were on the other coast I would have invested a half day at A2 to really get things pinned down but for reasons that I don't understand there is nowhere to get do so on the west coast. There are a couple more tweaks coming on the nose and then we'll have to test the old fashioned way - on the track.

InMotion is continuing to have issues this morning at a level is beyond my understanding - main servers, IPs, DNS transfers - but should be fixed shortly.

Very impressive the direction you are taking this, and the effort put in. Very informative too.

I like the hood. I have the same vision for my hood one day. That is well executed. The new spoiler looks cool too. The new look of the car is going to be much more aggressive.

James, can you share more about the 7" LED Headlights and other lights you mentioned? Maybe a link?

Headlights are a particular concern of mine that I have not addressed yet. I had not seen an LED yet.

I take it this is it?
