Nice. The snap-off I got was from SPA Techniques. Yes, those are the functions on my list. #7 is undecided yet:

1) Left signal
2) Right signals
3) High beam (flash only)
4) High beam (locking)
5) Horn
6) PTT
7) Radar kill switch (?)
7) Camera switch (?)
7) Instrument function (?)
7) Monitor function (?)
7) Guns wink

See? It's not done yet and I already need more buttons.

The carbon fiber part is my own design, I will make a more advanced diffuser during the winter. The wheels are made by ImageWheels (UK).

In sweden the biggest car magazine for "tuner"-cars have a test track where the Swedish version of "the Stig" tests different cars. They also list if the car is road legal or not and what type of tires it use.

I can't tell you the time or possition untill they have published it in the magazine but I can tell you that "the Stig" was very pleased with how the car handled. I used Kumho R.

Here's a (very) small teaser...

Nope not mine but it's a good friend of mine that has built it (in the same garage as mine is built) and now it's another good friend that has bought it. That car is undergoing serious modifications right now. Öhlins dampers, new A-arms and sequential gearbox is on the list.

hehe smile I can tell you that the lotus and speedsters etc are seconds away from the time we got biggrin

After I adjusted camber, toe and corner weight I have done 3 and 1/2 track days. Measured everything again now and nothing has moved so maybe they arent that bendy after all... wink

I can't say anything about the time since the magazine isn't printed yet. It will take a few weeks more until it's official.

Well, is your car ahead of all the Porsches? That's what I'm most interested in. Seems like everyone I know thinks a Porsche is a quicker car around the tracks.

Ordinary Porsches are SLOW. GT2's are ordinary...

Do you guys know the BMW called "Loaded"?

It has the current record for road registered cars on Nurnburg ring. They have now tested that car on the same track as mine was tested (The swedish "Topgear" track called super stage) and *thadaaaa* it was much slower than my Ultima biggrin

With the same driver as drove my car it was two seconds slower and with another racecar driver it was a bit over 1 second slower. Also have in mind that my car only got three laps on the track due to the weather so I guess we can be even faster next time.

So how interesting would it be to see a proffesional driver with the GTR around the Ring?
