Awesome video. Does anyone know what exhaust are they running? Sounds great. Very cool to see how the spoiler moves based on acceleration or braking.

The exhaust is a version of the new "Valvetronic Bazooka" we are introducing in June. Pic below. The only difference is on the track car its not adjustable, its always loud. With our valvetronic version, you can go from loud to quiet with a remote control fob.

Thanks Rafi. Very exciting. Looking forward to seeing video clips of the exhaust system.

Car is not setup for drag racing... not the tires, not the suspension.

That said, I swear, some day we will go to the Nurburgring and run a 7min lap, and the first question will be, “but what will it do in a quarter mile”

It’s good to have an idea how’s the acceleration with the current setup then, change to a more accommodating drag setup. Some people want to do both. Drive a trackable car then, drag with friends for fun.

Anyways, when is the plan to drive it to Nurburgring? What are the specs of the wheels and tires?

I drove one a few weeks ago... traction is a must!!! Love the sound of the air release when that charger kicks in!

Actually we have an RCF customer in Europe who may do an SC, so it’s possible I may fly out to do the install, and we may then take it to the ring.

Wheels atm are Rays gram lights 19” with 295 with Michelin Pilot Cup 2 tires.

Rafi, Pete
May I know the offset of the gram lights? Assume front & back are the same?
Whats the camber set at the front?
I can never get my front advans (+35) to clear 295 with -3 camber. Currently running 275 square.
Are the fender liners trimmed/removed ?
Thanks,
ming
