First off, congrats to Sparco/APEXi and Buschur/RRE for a great showing

Now the big question is, is there a website or anywhere on the net showing what components the Buschur/RRE EVO used for the SCC shootout? I have always been a big fan of Buschur and RRE and would like to build a car similar to their setup. I already found the website with Sparcos components, so I am covered there. Any information on the stuff they used in their Evo would be greatly appreciated.

 

BuschurRacing.com ,David is on the boards all the time. Robi is the guy who owns and drives the car. He is a nice guy just send him a PM and ask what is working for him.

 

Oh awesome, thanks

 

i beleive robi was using a stage 5 bucher setup with dms suspension,weight reductions(fiberglass doors,mr roof,gutted int.)a dogbox and 275 tiresrobi dont mess around

 

robi car is dope

 

DAMN ALL MY SECRETS OUT IN THE OPEN...;-).
I think I might post a thread...or have KK do a feature since DSport didn't show me any "love"

 

Youre right no love at all. Oh well theres others.

 

So are ther any people interested in a "robi Spec Evo" (then you will just have to out drive me??? ;-)...to be the next shootout champ)

 

Hey Robi, did you use the BR500 turbo for the shootout? And if so was it the BB version? Thanks

 

500 plain bearing only tuned for low 400's but max torque. The Hp was good to have but the DMS coilovers were the differance imho (I had the DMS Set-up guru Mark Moore in from Canada to fine tune the setup DMS gave me and I had tested the previous week). I knew the Mueller squad would have trouble helping because they were working on 7 cars that day. To their credit they did check my alinment when asked in a timely fashion. My set-up has been diverging from the set-up which is the fastest using the JIC's for the last 6 months. I have the car higher, (get more wheel articulation over curbs) stiffer sway bars. anti-"bump steer" modifications (front and rear) less aero down force and progressive springs. These all add up to a car which develops awsome sideways mechanical grip without masive body roll. and amazing forward bite coming off a corner (even John Mueller liked this enough to make a positive comment on this part of the setup). Buschur gave me the HP to be competitive. DMS and Mark Moore's tuning of the setup on the day of the event garranteed the power got to the ground and this imho allowed the win. (For me as a driver the DMS setup being double adjustable allows the car to be tuned to be "more composed" when the car hammers a curb. This inspires confidance and this confidance causes faster laptimes.)
Remember we beat cars with over 100WHP more power...With a better driver driving it.

What do they say? Power is nothing without control...

We have installed DMS coilovers on 3 cars now the second car was the #4 placed EVOM shootout car on JIC's). His car went over 2 seconds faster on the baseline setup at WSIR than it had ever gone before. He wondered if the DMS 50's were worth the $$$'s before this, now he's all smiles. (and looking for a rematch!!!)
