what about placing channels around the radiator to improve flow. seems like there is a lot of turbulence due to the lack of laminar flow around the core. I looked at the lotus elise design with the horizontal radiators and marveled at how efficient the system looked. other bright spot was...

Does Camillo own any other shoes other than Vans? :lol I don't think I have ever seen him or a picture of him in anything other than them.

:agree: when I read stuff like for some reason "what if that was my child?" always runs through my head. and makes me cry like a baby.... thank God for good people. thanks Jeffy.

They are much better. Shadowman can likely set you up with a cool set of stainless works headers. Bill? please interject here.

paint protection film. if the car does not already have it. Then a TRANSAXLE cooler and an exhaust. Learn the car for a bit then go for adding power. Sorry guys for being the spoiler here but frankly, after seeing two of the cars that I have owned in the past wrecked within the first 100...

I thought about the spf gt40R but have not seen one in person. the only spf I have seen to date was at rally 2 and then did not get a chance to put my backside into. I think in the past there was a discussion about the RCR 40 being a better handling car on the track. can't find the thread...

you guys crack me up!.... :bored

with the increase in "technology" (I will never understand the rational thought of having your car on life support just to fire it up) so increased the cost. Chip, great montage of cars. They went from Gentlemen racers (art and beauty) to corporate racers (rolling billboards) IMHO.

That plaque tells a huge story... of how far government bureaucracy has grown its tenticles into everything. 3/4 of the plaque tells the story of red tape and the hard work of restoration (and the crew that did it) barely get a line. :frown

Pencil me in. I am not definite until I find out when my son starts school in the fall.

I've taken the vinyl off of 6 cars. its not hard. I found out that if you use a HAIR DRYER on medium setting, a plastic bondo blade, and a small amount of 3m adhesive remover. its about a 30 minute job from start to finish. just pull at a low angle and slowly. I have taken both stripes...

buy an iMac. just plug it in and boot it up. then software update does the rest. :biggrin I'll NEVER use anything but an Apple again... if Apple ever goes under .. I'll use an abacus or go totally off the grid. H@ll I might do that anyway. :bored

well... Modern F1 cars will never be vintage raced. too much support and too fragile. what privateer can afford a team of Nasa scientists every weekend?

I, like many of us here truly love this land we call "America". But, personally I have come to see government (as defined by those in office not as envisioned by the framers) as less than deserving of the land God blessed us all with. Thanks Ralphie. That was truly a wonderful piece to share.:usa

So you want to cancel lunch now huh? :lol

That's why they make Body Armor, Larry. How many sets you want? :biggrin

I agree. But since all three manufacturers make rear drive cars again. Let's get back to the street car formula in Nascar. Hell, even allow awd and lets put a street Taurus SHO in the mix. Tube frame look a likes of "street" cars is just BS IMHO. What makes vintage Nascars so cool is that...

Gentlemen, we have talked several times about the Gt-40 replicars here on this site. Several members own them. Out of the two types RCR and Superformance which one would seem to be the best for a track day car?

Nascar needs to get back to its roots. Buy in on Friday, race it on sunday.... IMHO. F1... Cool cars, ugly as a red headed step sister ... but still cool tech. A bit like NASA for cars .... still too much $$$$$$$$$.

Have one. great on the shelf. Not so good as an RC car.
