i hope to build a nice current OL 10.5 car at some point. They are just works of art in them selves.

the air goes in the bottom and through a mini radiator and out the top. Water/ice is then stored in a tank, usually in the trunk, with a pump to keep the radiator part cold. This cools the air passing through it lowering the air inlet temps.

to me, the amount of interior isnt what justifies a vehicles performance ability. If you look at it, its a standard style 8 point cage, i just added a funny car hoop to it. It doesnt have any floor bars, a double frame rail, an X door bar, rocker bars, or even a dash bar. Plus i like the street car look way over the gutted race car look.

I don't think I know many if anyone here nor anyone from Illinois looking to make radials. I'm going to be making a bunch of different sizes and patterns, hopefully soon. As for the car, the stock flat hood is staying. Its going to be an injection manifold that I'm designing and will be making soon.

Thanks, I hope it turns out halfway decent. Heck, if I turn it out ill be happy since I have a bad habit of starting other projects mid build and not finishing.

well i wanted to retain a street car look and all the stock interior. The cage is actually a pretty simple one, it just has a funny car hoop added to it. I probably would have tossed the back seat and part of the floor if it were a 25.2/25.3/25.5 style cage. As for the radials, its a design i made in CAD and make on my own.

made the wheel tubs as tall as i could without going through the package tray. And a better look at my cage design. here is the bracket above the backseat i made to hold the intercooler up in the place i want it.

just starting to get back into models, its more of a winter thing for me since the summer is filled with some sort of racing nearly every weekend. Anyway this is a little project ive wanted to do for a while, and now the kits are readily available i can tear them up with no care. Plans are to be based around a stock style suspension car, full interior, BBC/th400, single 91mm turbo, air to water intercooler, on drag radials. I started this about a week ago and am takin it pretty slowly here. This is the second cage ive ever done so it does need some work to make it more authentic, but is gonna work for me and this project the way it is. Let me know what you guys think of it so far. here is the wheel and tire combo ill probably go with checking the fit of the cage to the A and C pillars Here is how i intend the car to sit
