WOW! I want this motor to put into a 7. http://img.worldcarfans.com/2009/5/medium/8533608.jpg http://www.worldcarfans.com/9090528.007/ford-fiesta-powered-by-800-hp-engine-to-run-pikes-peak They want to run the hill in less than 10 minutes, I bet after 15 minutes the motor goes ~boom~. A stock 2.0-liter Duratec is what 140 hp? how can you get over 800hp out of this motor?

Here is my dream trailer. I have seen this trailer up close a few times and looks very well built. But it is not cheap. http://photos.ebizautos.com/new-2009-x_trailer-small_vehicle-aluminum-5491-1183644-1-640.jpg More info: http://auto-europe-sales.ebizautos.com/webdetail.aspx?iid=1183644

I do the same!!! Awesome looking car. What are the headlights, they look so small. Are they bright enough?

A ton of feather weights the same as a ton of lead… I am far from an expert on trailers but I do know that that aluminum trailers need more bracing because aluminum is not as strong as steal. And once you add all the aluminum bracing, your weight saving is not as much as one would think compared to the steal.

13" WOW you are going to spin the tire right off the rim

Sorry I am late posting, But this is awesome news Hank!!! This is the icing on the cake for a great weekend!!! haha, ready to run on the track!!!

WOW that was a good read. My class for Auto-X is HF (Have Fun)! But for all the Auto-x nuts who live week to week with their times, I guess B-Mod. It's not like I am going to be taking first at nationals or anything.

Thanks, I did not think to look back at a 3 year old post.

Ouch, 3,000CC and I am only running 900CC but my weight is in line. B-Mod it is. Looks like a 7 does not fit into a class very well.

So what class do people run in? http://www.moutons.org/sccasolo/Lists/2006/stockm.html#Lotus A Lotus 7 should run in CS (C Stock) with Mazda Miata Miata, Pontiac Solstice, Porsche 914, Saturn Sky, and Toyota MR-2 Supercharged. This is what I ran in this past weekend but people gave me a very hard time. Or maybe it should be ASP (A Street Prepared) with Vipers, Ferrari 355 360 Modena Dino 206 & 246, MINI Cooper S JCW (works) package, Mazda RX-7 Turbo ('93+), Porsche 911 AWD Turbo and catch-all Sports cars over 2 liters not otherwise classified. What SCCA class should a BEC 7 be in?

I am downloading like mad. Last night I plugged the jumpdrive into the TV for episode 1 and the wife said "Not Another Car Show". This is after an hour in the garge messing with the car and her reading a book. Tonights a car gathering, to I might get to watch episode 1, but highly unlikely.

Power: 124 HP (90.5 kW) @ 10500 RPM (Ball park 100 hp at the wheels) Weight: 1,200 lbs (ball park with me in it) 12 lbs per HP

What is the weight of each rim? Call me Colin Chapman but it is all about weight. http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/8224/cimg2625resize.jpg Who's car is this? Is that bedliner on the back fenders? I like it! Sorry to high jack you post.

Don't listen to the above post! Someone must have logged into Hanks account and posted this.

Hank, this is bad news, but maybe Trooper Greene will be car nut and all it will take to get a pass is a ride in the car Wishfully thinking. My dream was to have an aeroscreen on my car, but last week I went on the highway and it was like the matrix: a bug came at me, closer... closer and POW that little bug make a paper plate size splat on the windshield. If I had an aeroscreen, that splat would be on my face.

Holy Mother... That is crazy Hank. You have any more pictures of that car?

That looks very cool, but it you need mroe down force, just hook up the trailer

Yep, what he said. I can just picture it now, Hank is at the track for his first test run and the teck guy walks up to the car and says, where are the cotter pins, I can't let you run unless you have cotter pins on your belts.

Hank, I don't see pins in your seatbelt hooks!!! Better add that to the "list" before any track day

irs

I got a ford sierra rear end hook-up to a Honda firebalde that puts out 88.30 Nm (9.0 kgf-m or 65.1 ft.lbs) @ 8500 RPM on some 185x60x14 tyres. (I need to check the tires size again)

I had problems with both my front fenders, but the back, Noooo. This really got me thinking, next Sat 4/16 is my first auto-x in the 7. Moving on to happier things. Hank is street legal this weekend! Watch out Baton Rouge, LA, a 7 is on the street!

Yep it was super nice of them to send it. I has feeling kinda down yesterday looking at all the cool CF parts you have coming and when I got home had a nice surpise.
