Gazboy Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 What are they claiming? This GT55-33R makes 1376rwhp on boost alone: http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/8835/dsc05475rg4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 (edited) A bit more than that, but it was the chassis work that really caught my eye, the full spaceframe looked amazing Edited August 8, 2008 by jacko (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 seems odd though. more than one person told me Leon had given up on stroked engines for being fed up of bending them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Fish Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 seems odd though. more than one person told me Leon had given up on stroked engines for being fed up of bending them! i also thought they were sitting this year out aswell for some reason!..well thats what i heard anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 (edited) he gave it a half beans launch, then fairly slowly down to about the 8th and then floored it and did a 10. summin.

Chris Wilson Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Thought I recognised some of that tube frame style, Webster Race Engineering did Gary Gooding's RX-7 didn't they, too? Well respected fabricators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Got a floppy old Aerotop? Try this remedy http://www.webster-race-engineering.co.uk/import/pict0005.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranz Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Isn't that headlight air intake duct supposed to go through to the outside of the headlamp lens? Just a guess, but it'll be drawing a vacuum inside that headlamp casing which would be a bit of a restriction...... not that they haven't got enough boost by the look of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 certainly will, the whole thing is spaceframed tho, none of that boring chassis stuff lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 The one thing i can say with 100% certainty is that machine has cost someone a LOT of money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 yea damn right. A chassis from Websters is going to cost you thousands and that's before you even start on the engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
