That is what I thought. Did he get out of miatas or something? I haven't heard anything about him in years.
|
Gordon took a sabbatical to focus on other things. Still has Mega AFAIK. 450whp C38-74 Rotrex with 275 Hoosiers and more aero than any other Miata on the planet. I should rent his car and bring it out of retirement.
Anxious to see what Moti can do in either of his projects once he installs some hp. |

I need to decide which version of the few I have in mind I should go with.. Every single one of them that involves an easy button purchase feels half assed, and I'm not a fan of half assing things. |
Didn't get a chance to post flat bottom pics with the ducting done, so here it is -

BTW, we already went ahead and put another mod on the car immediately after watching the vids from Super Lap -

That undercarriage ducting is awesome! What are the ducts feeding exactly?
|
they are just feeding air into the center section to cool down the trans. tunnel/exhaust/diff.
|
Yep, it works very well too, 2 days of running @ BRP and the tunnel didn't even get warm...

Not sure about this being the case..
Same here. I need to decide which version of the few I have in mind I should go with.. Every single one of them that involves an easy button purchase feels half assed, and I'm not a fan of half assing things. |

NASCAR v8......with turbos.
Also, cool to hear that the ducts kept the tunnel cool enough. You give me hope Moti! |
Nah, F1 V10 is way more reasonable-er!

But nascar v8s are actually "affordable"

Hayabusa v8?
|
Sure, when was the last time you looked at the pricing of a Hartley V8 (based on Hayabusa)?
IIRC the prices are ~$35-40K, depending on displacement / HP. |
Synergy V8 FTW :naughty:
Yours for the "low, low price of $43K" (Starting price) |

On second thought it's not that small of displacement, but whatever, still bad ass. |
