The cars we beat on track in these shoot outs will shock some of you. Stay tuned more to come!



It's been a busy year so far!

GM ought to bring a couple of those to the 25hr this year. E0 class is where it'd fit.

I like the brake duct idea!


Here is a photo Paul sent today of the front sub-frame ready to go into the car. They are on it!

So much for the "if you've seen one DSE subframe, you've seen them all." sentiment. I totally missed that.

Nice way to make use of a frame horn.. I was racking my brain out on how the hell I was going to do brake ducts on the front without affecting the turing raduis with 305's on the front.. I had the upright figured out..

Oh yes we are using the DSE Hydraformed rails for brake cooling ducts. I need to be more careful on the pictures I post....

Matt opened up the rail and capped off internally and added a curved piece to turn the air. 18 X 11 wheel no problems lock to lock.

With the Anvil lower front valance it is wide open for brake ducts. We squared off the end of the frame rail and removed all the bumper bracket holes. Then added front duct that pull of the opening in the lower valance.

Now that you guys figured that I can post the rest of the pictures when I find them.

With Carbon Ceramic Brakes you need a lot of air flow to cool the brakes. Especially when you are making 875 HP. They don't have much thermal mass so much the cooling needs to be by air flow.
