NC track build

Thanks guys. Here's a updated dyno. It's been on this power level for awhile now. I have some track videos on the FB page.

The last bits for the splitter came in so I put in on one last time.


Then I got the last bit of the wing done today. I got the wing damaged 2nd hand so I fixed the broken bits. This was sanded down flat and spot painted black after this.




I curiously put the car on the scales after all the changes to see where it is.

Super clean execution of the flat bottom, better than we did on ours. Nice work!

Thanks Brian, I'd like to close it totally off but I think i'll wait until I make a diffuser before adding all the complexity of heat management for the diff/trans.

Lovely rear custom links, did you make those or source them?

[eflove]

Those were a custom deal with machined balljoint studs and generic circle car links. I've been working with SPL testing these samples out before the production run that will be typical SPL quality/colors.

All done. Time to take it to the track.

Same splitter hardware we use with the countersunk large washers What material did you use for your splitter?

Car looks great! Is this a CJ Wilson Racing project or a personal side-project?

[eflove]

This is a personal project. I worked at CJWR for a number of years including when I started this build. Lots of nights and weekends. The splitter is made from a AL honeycomb core with fiberglass skins. It's used in airplanes as flooring I think. I was messing around today seeing how strong it is.....

To post a update after trying out the new bits. It all works quite well and has settled the car down quite a bit. It puts power down on exit so well now I never even turned the traction control on. I was surprised how much it made a difference in the slower corners. Took around 3sec off the lap times. It does had a push in the slower sections now so i'll be making changes to cure that.
