Oooh that's nice, how narrow is the rear end now? Are you upping wheel/tyre size? I like the IRS setup, it should remain constant rather than camber on launch.
That engine turbo, nitrous combo should certainly liven things up not to say the old one wasn't  Shocked Can't wait to see this back out on track.

Hi Danny,
Cage looks great. Have you got new front wheels to match? Also what's the rude height going to be?

Hard to tell at the moment without the engine, it's on the launch when it squats.

I must admit , I was a bit dubious when you asked me to make some 2 inch oversize rear fenders with a flare on too , but with the fat rear end the car has now they really work well . Will you have enough clearance for the tyre when it squats ?

Looking forward to seeing it out again !

to be honest mate these are the old ones .i had issues with the offset on other rims even with oversize wings so i ordered a new set with much deeper backspace  there was a lot of clearance inside wheel on irs setup so i managed to get full travel of suspention without foulding the ol dwings  Smiley Smiley Smiley
