Good googly moogly. You've single handedly made me a fan of the 3rd gen.

Bluevitz-rs · 06-05-2015, 02:13 PM

Wow looks awesome! I like the giant mouth look at the front LOL

Freestylin · 06-05-2015, 09:24 PM

That looks really good Jason! This thing looks like a track monster now!

What suspension and wheel/tire setup are you running? Are those RPF1's 15x7 +35 and Hoosier tires 205/50R15 profile? If so, then did you have to do any fender work to use this setup at the current ride height?

What spring rates are you running both front and back? What is the dampening set at?

Looks AWESOME!

Although I am sure they are your sponsor, Monster sponsor is the most annoying. I automatically relate Ken Block to Monster and that guy isn't that great of a driver. Cool video's, but when it comes to competition, he just doesn't match up to those who are seriously good at it.

You may be curious as to how his first race with the new car went.

Monster is not one of my sponsors, they are on the car because Jamie Bestwick is going to guest drive it at a couple of events this year, and they support him.

Took the car out to Buttonwillow Raceway for a shake down, just as quick as the old car only more stable, making it easier to drive at the limit. Had planned to sign up for the track day portion of the event, but the tech crew got me a log book in time for qual so I entered the race.

Started on the pole for the entire group, and took the overall win, first time I have ever done that. Lowered the track record I sat for this configuration in 2013 by 3.5sec (the track has gotten faster since they repaved last year, so this was expected).

Very happy with the car, no hiccups whatsoever.

Outstanding

ilikerice · 06-09-2015, 04:02 AM

Congrats.. You think the body style helps a lot with the stability because of the aerodynamics compared to the 2nd gen?

Its due to the longer wheelbase.

Have you guys still been running the original motor you built years ago?

The head that is in the car now was built in 2010, but the bottom end was new in 2012. It did not get used in 2011 or 2013, so its still in good shape.

The spare we are rebuilding was all new in 2012, and has not been run since the end of that year. Now it is getting fitted with custom pistons, upgraded rods and better valve springs.

Very cool. I guess you're raising the CR an RPM limit.?

Compression will only go up a little, class limit for our car is 11:1, but we are looking for another 1000rpm to deal with the top speeds at Daytona - it should also help with the gap between 4th and 5th because I will be able to shift later.

Jason@SportsCar · 08-19-2015, 06:35 PM

Just waiting for the custom pistons to be finished.
