It was a real bitch getting everything lined up perfectly. So glad I made loads of measurements before I started. Supported the bottom of the collum by making a bracket that secures to the pedal box bolts on the bulkhead. There's a little work involved to make sure the shaft can't move up and down, but will still collapse if there is a front end crash.
Loving your build Norwegian Rotary, fantastic to see such innovation. I'd be very interested in a set of fiberglass wings if you have the time to make them. The summer is not that far away now, good luck! Thats right, i detected that i had put it upside down after I put out the picture, but thats is not a big problem then, fix it tonight.. Also started on assemble the rear axle now.. I'm thinking of selling som fiberglas or CF parts after I have finished my car.. Well see.. |

The summer is not that far away now, good luck! I'm sorry to tell you that with my configuration on the steering and front suspension, i need to have the anti-roll bar upside-down from what's normal on an FC. This is beacuase I have fabricated all the atachment points etc my self, so i get it as i want it to be, if I put it the other way it will hit the motor when the suspension is all compressed. |

More pics comes when something visual upgrades happens with the car, lots of things that i do that takes a lot of time but you dont see any difference on the car |
looking good man
|
As usual, well done
Are you going to make some barriers inside that beautiful oil pan, so that the oil won't sloosh around and aeriate ? Why not just go all the way and have a dry-sump set-up, just a flat plate under the motor with a pick up or two for the oil-pump ? |
did i miss some thing what motor are you running.
