I agree with Mary "Don't think it will matter a whit ..."

I don't tell people the color because it changes all the time and we won't know for sure until it comes out of Joe VanNus's paint gun.

Alright. I'll bite.

What?! No aero mods?! Underbody tray, rear diffuser, splitter??? The competition will likely be doing more power and less weight as well. What have you got up your sleeve to get the title back?

Armchair Quarterbackingly yours,

How are you losing weight? From your book it seemed like you were always thinking about it, but from the pictures I can't spot any indication that you've gone farther in that direction than you have in the past.

What did you learn from Red Devil that you're applying to this car? With so few details it seems like you're building the same car over.

My bet is that Mark will fall on his creature comfort sword a bit and save weight in one area by not soundproofing "the little devil" as extensively, or perhaps at all.

As memory serves there was a figure mentioned in the excerpt on Red Devil in his Building the Mule book that spoke of 60 Pounds... That would be a huge diet for a car so capable.
I also got a minimalistic vibe off of that radiator shot, Smaller tanks maybe? Efficiency though less water weight?
As we learned from Stielow in the Mule book he goes the extra mile and shaves tenths of ounces to save ounces and ounces add up to pounds.

4.92 lbs per rwhp and it will look great in orange.

Ok I'll ask how much power???? Same setup as before? More cubes?? Oh and by the way we need more pictures please!!!

Subscribed! I was just reading about shortening the wheel studs on the Mule to save 25% of the total stud weight. I love learning from these builds.

Not my place to reveal...but I don't think it matters much. It's going to be killer.
