Man, been a long time since I have been in here! Sorry about that guys.

We have a few upgrades planned for the car this year, but for the most part we feel the parts are there to make this thing win.

We are changing out the radiator for a larger unit. It just didn't quite cut the mustard when it can to 85*+ weather and dual drivers in a prosolo. We just got it mounted up this week, the mount is only 1lb, and we are hoping it is rigid enough to deal with the weight hanging there. We will be watching it closely for the first couple events to make sure there isn't anything bad going on.

We are also changing the rear brake calipers and rotors to try and **** the balance further rearward, those parts should be arriving anyday.



I will keep the updates coming as we get ready for the season!

Zack

Its a shame ya'll cant separate airflows and block that off. Its OK for us to vent thru the trunk lid with cabin air since trunks are open. Does move the weight up a little, but I'll take up and cool in the back than front and cool.

Any other changes this year or just more dialing in and seat time?

Yeah, the only way we could duct it efficiently would be to go through the bulkhead and up to the rear side windows withing the prepared rules. We did some looking at it, by the math the ducting we would need would probably be more of a weight penalty than just running a larger Rad.

We are just doing the rear brake upgrade, and getting the carbon fiber doors made. We are looking into dampers, but other than that we are planning to just run the car and continue tuning.
