Yup, and the FD's are still trying to best it. Simply amazing. Exceptional engineering on that car.

Good find! Now I won't have to dig through my pile of Option videos just to watch those clips. Damn vhs! Never seen the R-magic fc clip though, I wonder which vol. that one is from.

I'll add some pictures while I'm at it:

RE Amemiya fc looks gorgeous running around.




I rather have a cage then be sorry if I didn't: http://noriyaro.com/?p=1936 TC2000 is tricky.

SUPER NOW did a 56.7 and possibly faster after I left the track today!

This is about the 3rd time Super Now has had their FC out with the new set up and he is already showing signs of possibly breaking into the 55's with an FC!!!

A video should be available soon!

M-Speed and Nagisa Auto R34s are both in the 54 sec range now chasing the HKS EVO CT230R.

R-Magic's FD and Panspeeds FD are still stuck in the 55 sec range.

R-Magic's FC, unfortunately does not belong to R-magic anymore as they sold the car, and are now rebuilding the car for a customer.

any idea what sequential shifter he is using?

from my understanding, supernow is just one guy with his own in-house parts right?? something like that? Freaking awesome that he rocks the FC. It seems like majority of others move on to newer chassis.

Super Now is a Machine shop, the owner is the driver of the FC and he made some parts for himself and some friends and then somewhat turned it into a sidebusiness. supernow.co.jp is their site. The FC's engine is built and tuned by Top Fuel. I think it is running about 1.6-1.9 bar of boost on a bridge port.

He is using an HKS sequential 6 speed mission.

I think there are about 6 employees at Super Now if I recall correctly.
