Vids! this thread just keeps on delivering

[phunky_monkey]

What an Animal!

That wing is super rude too... love it

[defari]

Sounds awesome, that pop when u back off the gas is daaaaammm nice! I'd really like to drive something with this amount of aero to get a feel for how crucial it can be even for a tight track.

Can you run the larger rear endplates without the 2nd wing element Mark, or do they serve little purpose when only running the single element?

Were you getting that much rear downforce that you were inducing understeer, have you considered running DRS with your Aeromotive wing controls

[R-PWR]

Mark was nice to meet you today and I must say never seen anything move like that on that straight ! Absolute Weapon GL at WTAC

[SimonR32]

Crazy stuff... Love the straight line acceleration, very impressive

[Beer Baron]

mate, 242 is wicked on that straight. will be a contender for top speed honours at WTAC for sure.

Sooooo much to do to finish off the car. Made a LONG list today of odds and ends so it looks like another big week at the workshop before we leave on wednesday morning.

Thanks to all the people who came out to the track over the last few days to check the car out and say hi.

Looking forward to seeing the car painted, stickered, and ready to kick ass at WTAC!!

[N1GTR]

Sounds like a build on American Hotrod

Huge list, small amount of time, a deadline that isn't moving.

[DCIEVE]

The car looks incredible in that rear 3/4 shot - looking forward to seeing it in action next week!

[Mohsen]

needs more downforce

[BK1990]

awesome photo looks great congrats man

I find it hard to believe that you've been able to do so much, basically like rebuild an entire car, in what seems to be a very short time frame.

Car projects seem to take forever, so this must have been very well researched and managed.

Fantastic effort all round, and thanks Mark for sharing.

Good luck next week, and I'm looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.

My son will be out there in an STi in the clubsprint class, but you're in another league.

Should be a great event, and hopefully a big crowd.
