Nice. That video kicks ***. I hate ricers.
Glad to hear you'll be finished for the autoX's Mike. It's no rotary, but it looks good!
I got my camber kit installed and the front end is another inch lower.
I might have to raise it back up because my front tires scrape the plastic inner fender well like crazy, but I love it. Its not really driveable with the adjusters all the way down, so I'll be sure to drop it as far as possible and take a snap shot before I raise it back up.
Of course, it'll stick a lot better at the track with some camber in the front.
So Jacob, are you gonna get that thing fixed up in time to goof off where your supposed to, at the autoX? The chances of hitting a ditch there are slim, and cones only do minor damage to the paint job.
While I'm at it, did anyone go to the Short Pump thingy?

Pics of the new setup Zach?
Just send an email to Rotary Aviation to see if they'll help support the PP 1st gen project. Hopefully it'll go better than my attempt to get support from M'trix.
I'll get a picture of my car Friday. It's supposed to be a nice day so I'm gonna give her a bath first.

hey zach im going to write an article about your first gen project for VCU. I need to schedule an interview with some of the project heads. My email is youngwc@vcu.edu. Please email me about this. It has a good chance of being published in the COmmonwealth Times.
Hello to fellow Richmond rotorheads!
Pardon me, I'm just gonna jump right in here.... I've been beating my 88 TII to a slow death at the dragstrip and don't see near enough rotaries out there. I found the RRR website a few months ago, but didn't try to contact anyone until today. Robin was nice enough to tell me that y'all hang out here on this forum.
So... Hello! Hope to run into you guys sometime soon.
Pic of my car--current best is 14.60 @ 101. Gotta work on the launch.

Hey Marc. Not much of a drag racer myself.
I live my life 1,000 cones at a time. For those 45 seconds or less, I'm free.
Here are the pics of my 'as low as you can go' setup. The only thing that limits me now is the size of my wheels. The plastic lining the wheelwell is completely rubbed away showing the now polished metal underneath.

I could drop the rear a little. I still need to measure and level it out.

It's gonna be really low with my 16" racing wheels. I can't wait to get 'em on!
