WestTexasS2K Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Some pics of 7evin and I working on the new 1 Lap car we thought it was a cool picture http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1583072073_DSC01941.JPG
slngsht Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 cool... looking forward to seeing it. Looks like Mojo is sharing some secrets with her new cousin.
BusaNostra Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I will take the one that fly---I mean the white one !!
slngsht Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I will take the one that fly---I mean the white one !! :lol: they added too much lightness
Kitcat Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Not as interesting as Mazda's picture of Franklin's reincarnation, which looks like a grenade went off in a pipe factory. I do like the white ghost of a Seven floating watchfully over head in your shop!

Mandurath Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 3 Sevens will come to visit you this eve, that of One laps Past, Present, and Future.....
WestTexasS2K Posted February 26, 2008 Author Posted February 26, 2008 The white car is in training for Run and Gun.
RDROCKT Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 I'm sure that "Green Bean" is going to carry a USA 7s sticker in One Lap of America, right?
slngsht Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 We could if we had one. Sounds like a challenge to Al
Boxologist Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Sounds like a challenge to Al Ole! http://www.latimes.com/media/photo/2007-10/33236233.jpg
SR27.Seth Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 Loren- Did you finally find a 2.2L motor- if so, from where? Are you going supercharged or NA?
WestTexasS2K Posted February 27, 2008 Author Posted February 27, 2008 Yeah we found a few 2.2L that we snatched up. We are working on a new supercharger system. We are building our own system with HKS fuel management. We are running one of the cars on E85 and are looking to get some decent powerband improvement over the previous car. We are hoping to get 75-100 more hp over the last set up. We will find out in about a month. Loren
Al N. Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 Sounds like a challenge to Al I gave Kevin my own personal USA7s banner! As for the stickers, we're working on it, people...
WestTexasS2K Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 I gave Kevin my own personal USA7s banner! As for the stickers, we're working on it, people... Kevin still has the poster. He hangs it on the toy hauler at events. Sponsors take up a good portion on the car but I am sure we can find someplace to put the USA7s sticker.

slngsht Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 More info about the wing please will you be running a front wing too?
WestTexasS2K Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Yes that one will actually go on the front. We have a larger for the rear. It is made of CF and is a really nice product. We were amazed at the quality for the money. I forget where Kevin got that but will let you know.
7evin Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 More info about the wing please will you be running a front wing too? Here is the web site for the wings. http://www.aprperformance.com/ http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/626101939_CS-105502.jpg They make them in both carbon fiber and aluminum. With the wing configuration we have selected they claim at 120 mph we can generate 400+ lbs of down force. depending on AOA of course. We would like to drive the AOA (angle of attack) electrically so at low speeds we have a high AOA and at high speeds we trim it out and have less drag. Then of course blow it to max AOA under braking and cornering for max down force. Cheers Kevin
