DrKerry Posted October 14, 2014 Author Posted October 14, 2014 It's easy Justin, just step into my mind awhile!!!!!! They are endless......... Thanks Alan. Trying to make a bad you know what track car....
Dale W. Verts Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Sweet. I know this ain't happenin', but if it was at all do-able I'd like to see something like the back-half of the McLaren grafted to the front of the Ferrari. I'd need to draw that out on paper and see. It might be pretty ugly (although some of the Chapparals in the day were ugly, and I liked them just fine). Dale
DrKerry Posted October 14, 2014 Author Posted October 14, 2014 Might be kind of kool Dale... It'd have that old skool race look to it. Even use an older Ferrari on it...
DrKerry Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 Air intake on roof. Filled both front and rear license plate mount areas..
DrKerry Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 Working on rear suspension right now...
DrKerry Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Thanks Andy, tossed it back into the box until I figure out tire and wheel combo for it. The Modena wheels are to tame and the McClaren's don't fit the ferrari suspension. I don't have the cash to buy anything kool so now I gotta look around....
exesivefire Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Look into the Pegasus 19s sleeves that I used on my fox build.. You could put the Ferrari wheels in there and get a more aggressive look I'm sure.
DrKerry Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Good idea Andy, I just want a more aggressive looking wheel on this build... Thanks Frank
Dale W. Verts Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Not in my skill level realm, Doc. Not yet. Keep this thang goin'! Dale
DrKerry Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Hey Dale, you'll get there!!! Just gotta try it and see how far you can push yourself...... This will keep going, just going to be hung up on tires and wheels for awhile...
Kennyboy Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 This so awesome Kerry!! We are going to brainstorm this wheel and tire issue and keep this on track for sure!
blunc Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Hey Doc, have you considered doing a naca duct instead of a snorkel on the roof for the engine air intake?
DrKerry Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Hey Doc, have you considered doing a naca duct instead of a snorkel on the roof for the engine air intake? A who??? LMBO. Not sure I know what type that is Mike. Clue me in on it, would like to see it....
DrKerry Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Ahh, I know what they are now. Good ol' Google.. I went with this style to have it look similar to the DTM styled cars. I wanted to go with a kind of menacing look on it...
DynoMight Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Doc! This is on a whole different level of awesome! Wish I would've thought of it first
blunc Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Ahh, I know what they are now. Good ol' Google.. I went with this style to have it look similar to the DTM styled cars. I wanted to go with a kind of menacing look on it... I was just checking to see if you wanted to go "smooth" or menacing.
DrKerry Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 LOL Glenn, sorry...... I hear ya Mike, it's all about menacing for me!!!!! Er, this!!!!
DrKerry Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 Well Kennyboy stopped over to show me a new project he's started and in the process it got me into my stash of stuff. As that happened I found the tire and wheel combo along with the wing that's going on this bad boy!!!!!!! I'll give ya a hint as to the wheels, ..... Think "Showrod"......... that's all I'm saying...

I am glad that we could work thru the issues.....just wanted to see this keep going! LOVE the direction it is going!!
DrKerry Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 It's going now my friend. Working on a wing mount design right now. Sitting here sketching out a few ideas... Gotta narrow up the rear suspension to accommodate the huge rubber going under... Plus it did me good to get up and move around a bit!!!
