Re: Drool!!!!

Damn... That thing is pretty sweet. 350hp @ 2300lbs = Nice!

Thats probably even de-tuned hp numbers. Twin turbo V6 would be so much fun!

Sweet, 350hp....switch the turbos to some bigger ones, put some supporting mods on it, and make 500+hp, then you would have something insane. But them cars are sweet either way.

Re: Drool!!!!

Bah, the Noble is too tame

Here is the one I will be building next winter hopefully!

LS series Chevy engine and 2200 lbs. Twin turbo's will be going on and a sequential 6 spd tranny. Production starts in October, and it is a kit car, but with a fully built tube frame and it uses mostly C5 corvette parts.

i like that ^

and while you can go and stick a v8 in it... why? it's a sports car that will be better off with a lighter engine. you can always pump up power as we all know from dsm's and stuff.

The LS2 is a light motor too. That is what I would use.

This isn't the 50's! V-8's aren't much heavier than the V-6's. Less than 80 lbs. The LS series are all aluminum. Put twin turbo's on a V-8 and run 750 whp on pump gas. Yeah, what the hell was I thinking, put a Ford Contour motor in it

Re: Drool!!!!

Damn, that's the first sexy kit car I've seen. I'd like to see the fit and finish in person.

Learn to read, ya schmuck! It isn't being released until Oct. and then it is going to be for former FFR customers. I am getting mine next winter.
