Heres a youtube link to a short video of the first test session of my project at our local track test day. Crank up the volume and remember it not about the lines but all about a mechanical shakedown to see whats needed next

Nice video. Thanks for the ride.
With that much weight in the back, what are doing to balance the car towards the front? |

Nice video. Thanks for the ride. With that much weight in the back, what are doing to balance the car towards the front? The radiator and lines are all up front. That helps. yes you're right there Randal, Plus the weight of the cage, the three fuel pumps. In fact it really isint that far off the balance of a regular 914 I think. If I put a jack at the jacking point on both sides and lift them simultaneously, the car can rock on them with no effort, maybe 3 kg heavier at the rear ie. if i put a 3kg weight on the front splitter it will bias toward the front (just). How does the balance go with regular 914's then? as a matter of interest (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
