Need a place to put this! I plan on transforming my car into a TRACK BEAST! Going beyond coilovers, completely change the suspension, braces, Trailing arms, etc... I want this car to be VERY competitive next year on the track! Motor is comming out in 2 weeks, going with new/stronger internals, Turbo, will gut the interior, change seats, need taller rear spoiler (ala Cyber Evo), and will "cage-it". Wide body/undertray etc... I will post my findings along the way here, and will include pictures. This will be a long write-up, as the winter is long! .

Need the car ready for the Winged Warrior II, in May of 06. And plan on seeing me rip up the track (or the car) around the east coast/miswest!

 

Smokedmustang, what is the winged warrior 11? Tried a google search had no luck.

 

Yeah! Maybe I'll finally get to see a car with tubular aluminum control arms! Sure they're uber-expensive, but I would think that a 'track beast' would flaunt such high profile, and elite parts with ease.

a couple of suggestions

1. shorten the wheelbase
2. widen the unibody
3. aluminum or cf roof, lowered if at all possible.
4. full lexan windows
5. the aforementioned control arms
6. cf or AL propeller shaft

maybe I'm going overboard, but when I think of 'track beast' I think of the JDM cars prepped by the shops to run low 50 second times at Tsukuba. In either event, I'm subscribed.

 

dude, you must have a money tree, cuz you spend money like its going out of style!!! good luck witht he project and I look foward to seeing it complete. if you need anything in the build LET ME KNOW!!!

 

I got you on my parts list NOLIMIT, I have to get the parts before the ether wears off, and my wife regains consciousness. I will Dump uber cash in it if I have to! Lexan was on my list.

 

Its actually under Winged Warrior II (not 11) Click on my picture, and search my threads, there are videos/ photos etc... of the events. with rules, final standings etc...(final standings of the May 05 event) All the info is HERE! It is an IMPORT vs DOMESTIC car speed challenge: This will take place Mothers Day Weekend 06. Expect magazine coverage, and 10K people in attendence!

The grand finale with the Team USA vs TEAM IMPORT hasnt been decided yet, but it will be a wild/awesome finale!

There will be 70 imports vs 70 domestics. Everything from us EVOS, lambos,ferraris, Saleen S7's, GT 40's etc... Will be bad to the bone!!! Will post info on this site about it. Just look up the old threads, and see how much fun we had before, and this will be HUGE! All proceeds go to the local Childrens Hospital. good cause!

There will also be a huge carshow! I just posted Butler University footage of the event under MIDWEST FORUM on this site!

No, the classes will be posted, and I am the TEAM IMPORT Captain, and there is a TEAM USA captain, and we will not have too many of one car or the other! Stand by for the classes, rules. They will be posted next week!

 

Mid 55 second lap times The record at Tsukuba is still held by the HKS Carbon Fiber Evo.

Here's a link to the in-car video from that record setting run.

If you're going to spend that kind of money you might be better off just buying a race prepped car. Unless you do that sort of thing for a living. In any case I'm also subscribed and good luck to you.

 

Thanks for the info, Quickevo, I want to build it, thats part of the enjoyment. Weather I drive it to smoke the record is yet to be seen. I want it ready, and smoking by next year! I have 50K on the car, out of warranty, and ready to tear apart! will keep you posted!
