I will definitely give them a shout when I finish the design.

Will hold judgment till more drawing/pictures, you have the lines of the car down really well but not sure on a few things, but it might be because of it just being a rough sketch.

bullitt5897 · 03-23-2010, 01:56 PM

so I submitted the Initial design along with my Jon Sibal rendition to AIT Racing... We will see what they have to say * fingers Crossed *

theDreamer · 03-23-2010, 01:57 PM

Do you have more drawings or just this one?
Also, why the opening on the hood? Your last drawing had it and with the lines of the 370 it just did not seem to flow as well. I think with the hood and the vents you have those might work, but the opening not so much.

new image cleaned up a bit:

OMGWTFBBQ · 03-23-2010, 02:34 PM

The rear wing's end plate reminds me of Do Luck as well.

phelan · 03-23-2010, 04:19 PM

Bullitt, if this somehow gets built, I WANT ONE!!!

fullmonty · 03-23-2010, 06:54 PM

It kinda reminds me of a Spider, pretty B.A.

Kyle@STILLEN · 03-23-2010, 07:23 PM

What is this going to be made out of? Fiberglass or CF?

You might consider relocating your air to air intercoolers to those side vents that you have so that you have more airflow to oil coolers and your radiator. That would be a pretty trick setup if you can incorporate all of your components to work in conjunction with one another.

Do you plan on racing the car or will this be strictly for show? If you do plan on racing, what type of racing? Road course? Standing mile? 1/4 mile?

Hey Kyle,

I am debating the costs at the moment for materials. I have some friends that work in the business and a dry carbon setup was going to run me $50k+. so I opted out of that and now debating between fglass, cf and poly. The car will be tracked (road racing) and possibly other venues just for marketing purposes but at this point it won't be a full fledged effort to win every event. As you stated the side vents will be functional and since the car is being TT'd the vents will work great for the turbo intakes and brake coolers leaving the center section strictly for the intercooler and oil cooler.

I have done a revision to the front which I think everyone will like ALOT more. It's not as wild but something that could definitely be made into a production piece. I will upload it in a few moments.

Ohhh and Kyle, if stillen would be interested on being apart of this project I would not object one bit. I am looking for a company to help make this a reality and I know this is off the beaten path for you guys but it would be a fun and exciting adventure!!!
