NB/MZR racer

So I started this project in November of 18 and thought I would share with the group. I know the question begs to be asked, "why put a MZR in a N/B chassis?" The HP gains are significant but maybe not enough to warrant the effort. In this case we are building to a set of rules (SCCA STU). I raced a N/C in the class for the last couple of years and the thought is, "lets get the same HP in a smaller package?" So I had this bastard N/B chassis hanging around. It is a 01 that I acquired as a empty shell and built up as a 99. I had bought a wrecked 99 from a customer, so it was just a matter of swapping the parts over. It was a simple build and became the "village bicycle". I rented it to a bunch of people and most of my friends drove it at some point.
Then late last year I had this harebrained idea to F it all up and make the most complicated race car I have ever built out of it! I gathering pics now and hope to tell the story of the process here. Here is the car as it was end of the 18 season. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...70121bcd65.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...53294a72a.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...e113dc5241.jpg Tilton pedal setup https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...d804735c2e.jpg modeling header https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...591937192e.jpg Dry sump tank when I got it.
