We still have a few loose ends to tie up with the build - but we are up and running. Have had a few bugs to work out - mainly in the fuel system. Moving forward we can now start to focus on the suspension setup when we are at the track. Our primary focus is on racing - but we will mix in some time trial for extra track time.
There are a few items that we have not had time to address yet. We are planning on modifying the intake to feed directly from the kidney grill opening straight back into a Karbonius race airbox. The radiator will have to be lowered and angled to gain the clearance needed. At that time we will also be seeing if we have the room to run chimney vents from the radiator guided out to the hood vents. We have a gap in the schedule from April to mid June that we will be focusing on these items. Still have the air jacks that we want to install as well and overall just pretty everything up - but reliability and speed will take priority.
I do want to give huge thanks to the guys at M-Technik in San Antonio. Not only have they done all the work on the car but they have also been completely awesome in guidance and support on the track as well. Just an all around great group of guys that I didn’t know this time last year but now I’m proud to call my friends.
Good people, good cars, good times – just doesn’t get any better than this
