like I said before your doing something right if everyone and there mama has something to say about your car...

it's just people just wish builds go in a certain direction when money isn't an issue..

cause since we all love Z cars your car is a statement for all of us...
hence all the coaching on what you needs to and what not...

I'm sure that doesn't make sense...

props on what you've done so far...waiting to see what you got in store...

Well, if that's what you wanted then you should have gone with one of those dynamic aero wing setups that you can change on the fly from inside the cabin. I don't know if you've seen them, but they even have split wing setups now that can move the left and right side of the wing independently to help you in cornering. I know its overkill...but....that's the name of the game isn't it? :)

Quick detach is a great idea, but just make sure whatever mechanism it is...that it can withstand 1800lbs of force too hehe. Hey..if you got an dynamic wing you wouldn't have this problem of super high df at high speed...just set to 0 angle of attack and go nuts. That's what Bugatti does with the veyron; wing gets lower and flatter to minimize drag. Would be awesome if you had an airbrake!

Kognition wing is easily removed, I'm going to try it with a carbon hatch. Hopefully it won't crack, the mount are set much differently than Mike's wing, I'll keep you guys posted once I have it on.

Yeah I know of aeromotion... I really like their stuff just not the price hahaha APR helped me out BIG time. The Veyron really was the motiviation for the idea I thought the airbrake was freaking wicked! but I dont know how well the APR design could hold up to that kind of force... its not what the wing was designed for. Cool none the less!

KingBaby, thanks for the kind words. In a perfect world all of our builds would be top quality parts and done in 24 hours hahaha glad to see things more civil now.

lol yeah if you want to improve your car it takes time and money.

amuse kit wont be here untill march, repainting the car will take about 3-4 weeks. bleh

I hope I can get the money needed for a TT setup in time so tom can work on the engine while its out of the car when they are doing the engine bay spraying.

bullitt5897 01-25-2011 12:41 PM

That sounds sweet! I look forward to following your build!

Vegitto-kun 01-25-2011 01:54 PM

lol if I had the money. project: white dragon amuse version.

lol I totally need my own project name now :p

Kingbaby 01-25-2011 02:03 PM

If you were premium you would know why. Nothing secretive just something in the premium section assigning a project name for your car. Something fun and the name some people come up with gives us a laugh
