I wonder, with that front Air/Water I/C.... Seems like it's like a huge drag on the front end. I wonder if there would be a way to do an Air & Water Intercooler.... Maybe a 1"wide bar and plate I/C strip inbetween each of the water tanks to further aid in cooling. I wonder if it would even help too... Hmm.....

that is such a cool idea, integrating the two designs.

No need for heat exchange in this setup. All you would need is a pump and reservoir.

Why use heavier stainless intercooler piping? Why not use aluminum for heat reasons as well as weight.

We are still on a stock crank. I feel we really should be on a better one. When we Maged our last 1000whp crank it had alot of cracks that were not there to start. I have found alot of these cranks to have cracks but never has seen a 2.0 one break. I almost think unless given a cool crank we will have to see a stock one break with our own eyes to spend the $1600+ for a good one.

Well I feel the extra weight up front should help keep the traction better on the launch. We were always spinning the front last year.

As far as drag the whole front end will be sealed off which helps with drag. AMS has a water to air IC on there Drag car.

LOL Dont worry i have been making 1 call a day to Lucas everyday to see when he will be done

I feel the changes we are making will really help us this year on our goals. Allot of what we learned from racing all year from evom to sema to AMS and even David will get us into the 8s
