This is down right beautiful. You must be single to ball out like this.

Since I switched to running TT4 this year, I need to make a new splitter to be compliant with TT4 rules. Can't extend more than 4" past the bumper and can't go past the front wheel center line. I also wanted to make it lower than my existing splitter which means it has to be quick disconnect to get on and off the trailer. And also easier to strap down on the dyno at the track.

Thanks to Chad at CBRD for help welding up the framework.

New splitter is pretty low. Was scraping during compression on some turns. I'll have to raise it up a little. It can be removed in less than 30 seconds once the car is jacked up.

with the canards removed, but the front splitter lowered, the front feels like it has more grip then before.

here's the first track event with the new front splitter, at NJMP Lightning course.

Your car is amazing! Just a question of curiosity...Why did you close up the brake inlets in the lower front bumper? Don't you need those openings for cooling? Or, is it for aerodynamics? Keep up the great work!

It's for aero, but they also aren't completely blocked. The black triangle is a naca duct he runs brake cooling off of

the oil cooler is moved to the front and the inlet closed off for better aero.

finally made it to Lime Rock Park for the first time. fun little track and very challenging to cut time because there are not may corners.

here's some nice pictures taken by Nemesis Photo

I may have missed it, but is your oil cooler in the stock location or did you move it?
pics looks good

Oil cooler relocated to the front. The side vents blocked off for better aero.

Did your oil temps change with the relocation? My oil temps are at a steady 260 on a 70 degree day with the stock cooler in stock location. I'm going to try Balrok's oil cooler fan setup first, and if that doesn't work I may want to relocate it like you -- but I worry about blocking the radiator.

during TT, on only run a few laps and oil temp doesnt go fast 240. but if i stay out the entire 20 minutes session in DE, it does go up to 260, but i haven't seen it past 260. im also not running about of power. 320 whp when i was in TT3 and now 280 whp in TT4.
