but then it will suck in wildlife and small children from the stands

[handbrake]

fatz, you'll never sell that front bumper with those sort of comments

[N1GTR]

Very keen to see this and meet you when you're down in Sydney!

yeah we already tested the car on local wildlife at QR, not pretty

I must say from reading this thread I am immensely impressed with the efforts from the guys at Mercury.

They also put in a great effort with servicing my GTST when I lived in BNE. A+

With 500rwkw at 21psi I can see that a touch over 600rwkw is on the cards at 29psi.

I would knife small children and beat women to own this car! It is that EPIC!

[Adriano]

Yeah, but then you would put an rb20 in it for the revs

[Roy]

Nah, the RB20 has its place....and its nowhere neat this car

[handbrake]

brackets made up for the battery

wide!

[On Edge]

Look forward to the video

It looked more like a platypus than a duck in the photo.

[BrenV]

Amazing build! Good luck for WTAC, can't wait to see it.

How much width to you add to the guards? And did you think of going even wider ??

Or perhaps this is a secret?

+30mm per side. We dont want to go too wide without doing the same to the rear and as we are leaving the std rear qtrs we dont want to unbalance the car.
