miko_supra Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Never seen that. Plenty of pictures, although I thought it was a bit odd spending all this money, such as the carbon fibre rook and rear wings which save about 7kg and then stuck with weighty UK spec brakes.

swich Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 In the first 2 pics, is it too much to have the TRD spoiler with a pretty much stock car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 wow all that effort on the car and all the majority of the people on that forum could do is winge and put the car down. so what if some of it was pointless, hats off to the guy for an awsome effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stinboy Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Really interesting read - proper time, devotion, sweat, blood, tears (and cash!) gone into that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 An old thread (and much reposted) For sure a serious amount of money and thought was put into it, but it seemed to be a waste of time. The car never got used for anything, weighed more than a similar car without the carbon bits and still hasn't run any decent times (last I heard anyway!). It's also unforgivably ugly. If weight loss & performance is the way to go, then Ryan's car beats this hands down. Although that was very expensive to do I bet it was a fraction of the price of the carbon one.

The-Plethora Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) Great attention to detail but I wouldnt want to be in that thing if it rolled! Edit: read a bit into it and see he fitted a roll cage, still a bolted on CF roof? sheesh.
