Holy ****... this thing actually might run within a month or so. Got my ms3 basic in from TSE and welded up mega-cheap wing for drag - I'll be swapping for a gtc-250 - I can't bare to steal the Kognition wing off the track car at the moment. Waiting on the rear 10" heims for adjustability.
Also ordered today was water/air intercooler and associated components...

Starting to really come together! Pumped for you man!

I just got my Lincoln 210mp in as well - started stitching up the chasis - moving right along!

Would love to see your work / ideas for the front "double-wing" setup. Rear wing looks killer.

Had some VooDoo Ranger myself yesterday - but being in Colorado New Belgium is much easier to find than out your way I'm sure

Relocated the rad to the back, eh? Had the same thought - frees up a LOT of space up front for the IC, etc. Have any idea what material you'll use for the lines back up to the block?

That's a heat exchanger for the air to water intercooler. Not the rad.

Yup - water/air. The main lines to and back are 1/2 copper, then rubber hose for the remaining. Can't wait to get this thing on the ground... this entire setup WILL scream at the tighter tracks such as Barber.
Alan (creator of the Eliminator) put down a 1:39.2 a couple weekends ago with SCCA TT... that was on about 180rwhp too. I'll be running 250+... now if I can only handle it.

Here's his run, last lap I think.
