what do ya think? Here's a quick overview;

NASA Super Unlimited Race car in progress, Lots of Aero, and soon to be ~500 rwhp. 335 Kumho road race tires to make it stick. This car started life as midnight racer, making~530 hp, and sporting the stock bronze color, and no wing, the car was quite the sleeper. When I purchased it, the owner had switched the car to a .60/.81 P trim TO4S. The turbo gives instantaneous boost, spinning 235-40-17 R compound tires all the way through first an second gears. That's nice for autocross, but I plan to rad race this car in the NASA Super unlimited class. With that in mind we will be switching to a T66 .81 Q trim in the quest for ~500rwhp with good response. If that comes up short we will use a Garrett GT40R Ball bearing 67mm turbo in a .94ar. The tire wheel combo has been my biggest dilema, I want to run 335s out back and 315s up front, but the only two R compounds available are the Kumho Ecsta 700(known for chunking out), and the Hoosiers(expensive, and don't last)My saving grace may be the viper club, as they run Michelin Pilot slicks in these sizes. I am working on getting a connection for scrubs, so my budget survives the tire costs. The Body is a mix of a Tripoint flare kit, a Rotary Extreme GTC nose, a custom reverse cowl hood(copied from the 3rd gen Mazdaspeed piece), and a BIG wing. I'd like to run the RE wing, but at ~1200.00 I will have to find something else. I may also create a functional roof scoop utilizing the stock TII hood scoop(we shall see). Anyway the goal is a road racing beast able to hang with just about any thing out there(in the amatuer ranks) I will keep the updates coming, as I finish them. Later for now Carl Byck 707-696-2705

Looks like you have your work ahead of you to make that front work with the FC's body lines.

do you think stock calipers are going to be sufficient for extended racing sessions? I haven't done more than a few laps at a time but i think the fade would be significant regardless of what pad you are going to use.
