Riley Technologies Trackday Car

About USD200K with a 500hp LS + Sequential box.

Looks like the car has power steering.... What is the white box up front? Probably battery storage pace. Could also be luggage compartement

White box in the front is a cool box, probably for the beers to stop the pit crew pinching them while he is out on track

[GTRCLIVE]

That's a Daytona Prototype if I'm not mistaken..... doesn't look very nice in the first place..... Makes me happy that I can sell a complete car for for $150K if there buying this at 200

[Pinnacle]

Correct, this is essentially a DP dressed up slightly, with a not so nice body on it which most likely creates apprpriate levels of down force. Originally they were saying about $180k USD, but is more likely closer to $200k USD or more pending options selected. Since Riley's shop is heavily involved in several series, this was relatively easy for them to get together. It could be made less expensive, with lessor components, but then that would ditract from several issues. Also correct, that is a "cool suit box" up front, to help keep the driver cool during track events. Not being intended for any street use, a pricey track only vehicle, but then again, there are plenty of high net worth people that will step in just for the fun of it. Time will tell.

That looks like a NA LS3 to me. I like the tires. They'd be fun in rain on the street.

where are the rads??? and if as i presume they are at the rear where the ultima oil cooler and aircon dcondenser go, how does air get to it as there are no vents??

nice front clip though...recon it might fit the ultima?? if you put rads by the engine??

The rear clip is nice. I wish they would have a better shot of it so we can see how it was finished off, especially if there is a rear diffuser, which I would bet there is.

Also, we worry about the intake location on the ultima, that thing looks to have an even worse location. Alot further down the rear clam, and in a location I wouldn't think is optimised for air flow. But hey, what do I know, these guys design and race cars like this for a living.

O...Hey Grant, didn't realize you were the OP. Would you mind sending it to my email addy on here? Im going to assume it looks like a regular DP rear end, just minus some of the extra bits that are featured on the race cars.

[crafty]

James... sorry about this but I think there's a little confusion here.

When I said "I have one of those" I was referring to my "untamed muscle"....which (I hope you will be pleased to hear) has nothing to do with either my intake or my rear end setup.

I hope that clears this up and I REALLY hope you dont want me to send you any pics of my rear end.

Or the "untamed muscle" for that matter.

Well, yes I am glad that you do have an "untamed muscle" as facial hair without one would imply something rather bad (unless you had a crazy ax-weilding ex). And no, we need need no documentational or pictoral proof to validate...haha
