I think that engine stability is a fairly important factor in the growth of FB. There is no question that there are a few guys who will pony up to have the latest & greatest engine no mater the cost....

VERY COOL SEAN!

Thanks ... Jay

I purchased a brand new 2007 GSXR 1000 engine with zero miles from a legit business for $4200 & it included EVERYTHING.

Thanks ... Jay

I hate to be a spoil sport but I have built 20 or so F440 & F500 cars & at best this will be a VERY DIFFICULT task.

What F440 chassis are you using?

In my humble opinion this could be a...

Way too much is being made of this. I am sure that Wayne & Lee are COMPLETELY AWARE of the rules for F1000. This airbox will be available for several different cars & classes. I am sure that they...

Yes the new Williams diff is a direct fit.

Thanks ... Jay Novak

I am working up a kit to put Wilwood forged caliper on Van Diemen uprights.

Not too far down the road.

Thanks ... Jay

The prototype weighed in at 803 lbs. The production unit will be about 10 lbs lighter.

Thanks .. Jay Novak

The current kit is for 98 & later Van Diemen chassis. We will modify it to fit earlier chassis if there is enough demand.

Thanks ... Jay Novak

Sean, I looked ito the Zetec pump & it is very neet, however the ones I saw only fit into the newer cells with the removable plate top.

Jay

Jerry, if this is your 1st effort it is actually pretty damn nice. I do have 1 worry & that is that the rear suspension will rotate under braking as the upper arm does not form a triangle. It will...

We are currently doing final assembly of Sean's kit. We are lining up all the suppliers & parts for production kits now. August will be possible but not July.

Thanks ... Jay

Call Peter D at Peter D Motosports. He has headers for a VERY low price. I purchased one for our kit & it was nearly perfect.

Thanks ... Jay Novak

Jeremy's car is a beauty & extremely well executed. I know he was cooling it at Mid-Ohio as it was his 1st time in the car other than a couple of laps of testing.

Brian was on rails in our F500...

This kit can be used on 98 or later Van Diemen chassis. The 1st kit is nearly done with just the finishing touches left. Pictures after the Sprints.

We plan on doing a conversion for earlier...

No question he really did a great job. I want to talk to him about his tail section!!!!

Thanks ... Jay Novak

Richard, please call me when you get an opportunity (Saturday is best)
313-445-4047.

Thanks ... Jay Novak

No reason at all John, just not enough time to get one & design it into the package. It may actually be a better package. I have already spoken to Richard about it & will get one when the timing...

Jay, the engine & the diff are in the car on a very slight angle. This is the only way to be able to use the stock arms. This is the same solution as used in the Speads race cars with zero...

All the STOCK arms, push rods & rockers are used. Very careful analysis of all the various geometry has allowed me to move the bits around to solve the package problems. The resulting...

Hi Dave, yes I guess I am getting a bit conservative in my old age. But wait till you see the next project.

No time for retirement, too much race work.

Thanks ... Jay

George Dean does harness mods to make them work in a car.

Thanks ... Jay

While tube frames may be old technology, they are still the most cost effective solution available for low cost race car chassis.

I have done extensive FEA modeling of many different chassis & it...

I am still working on the spreadsheet with all the parts & costs. I will be done with it next week & will post both here & on my website.

Thanks ... Jay

Ian, that is the weight of the subframe only, no diff.

The production part will be 6 lbs lighter than the prototype.

Thanks ... Jay Novak

The new pictures are up on the NovaKar website:

Thanks ... Jay

There will be more pictures on our website later today. We bolted the subframe & the engine onto the Van Diemen chassis yesterday.

Costs will be posted next week with a complete list of all...

What will the Stohr owner with an MV engine do after the 1st engine failure?

Thanks ... Jay

What a very nice installation Neil. I wish that they allowed twins to be bigger as they make a very nice engine.

Thanks ... Jay

A really nice piece of work. Now the real question: How much?

Thanks ... Jay

Good luck Matt. It is really looking good!!!!
