    Here is a new car that I have been designing and have now released for public consumption.....

    I am sure I will get flamed for this but ....I am looking for feedback....its not a replica of anything ..its all clean sheet design...full aluminum chassis too....

    Why flammed ? I like it. Sort of a modern 962. The chassis itself looks very purposeful...

    Must be a blast on some B roads !! Congrats on the work accomplished .

    Thanks...

    its 2200lbs with the TTG Toyota engine but the engine bay was designed to be large enough to install just about any longitudinal drivetrain....so if you crash your 348/355 or 360 I know the engine/trans package will fit in the back and make a killer track tool too...

    I would just get an Ultima instead.

    Why????...your SVX drivetrain would drop in the SLC too....

    Texas of course!
    I like it also! If it was street legal, would be on my list for sure!

    Looks cool, the engine could definitely be a tad more ascetically pleasing though...

    Well, it looks good. But, isn't the point of any Group C car is in having underbody tunnels? :confused: There aren't any on this car, and the chassis appears to be constructed in a manor that negates adding them.

    The CFD data is being worked on for a completely functional undertray....but the aero package will only be truly functional; when ride height is lowered to 50mm or less...above that its more aesthetic than functional.
    The front and side splitters are removable enabling the track package to be fitted, also
    The car is totally street legal...headlights and tailights are DOT compliant and meet all minimum height/width requirements for US/Euro specs.
    All RCR products are designed and manufactured in Detroit by experience European and American engineers.
    The engine bay will accomodate engine packages from V12 BMW to 4 cylinder Cosworth and everything in between....if we had limited the engine bay to just the SBC then it would eliminate the more ambitious builder/car guy from adding his personal touch to 'his" car.
    One component we have enabled the chassis to accept is the new Ford GT transaxle as its bulky but bullet proof and we already have a customer installing a TT BBC Brodix package capable of an "overkilling" 1000hp...most cars of this genre are totally geared to using Porsche transaxles but a wider range of transaxle is becoming available and serious car builders require the option of being able to include the latest components without having to re-engineer the chassis..

    All prices are USD...
