cooling was fine -at the end of the day I hot lapped for about 15 min -never went above 210* water temp -oil was right at 220* as well.

It's getting a CF hood soon.

Hahahaha -I have to -for the street -I'm going to terrorize the road with it... feels like a high 10 sec car -I'll have to run it.

Vids soon -in terms of cooling -it's all about the fan and shroud -I got a big fan and made sure that it was air tight... just idling I stay at about 170*

Car performed greatly at the track yesterday! Charles was able to get me an extra 50hp to the wheels down low and about 40 ft/lbs -it was a very noticeable difference!

Just need to sort out some suspension issues -anyone have a 2 axis cutter? wanna make a few $$?
