the rules have been changed for next year allowing us to make the car lighter. the rules are based around a one pound per cc rule. last year we had to wieght 2250, next year we will be around 2000 with driver so the car itself will need to weight 1800 with me driving. this isn't as easy as it sounds you can only make it so light. so our focus for this car is to included everything we learned with the old car but to make everything lighter and simpler in construction. so the rules allow you to cut off everthing in front of the spring towers and everything behind the rear axle and make it yourself. we didn't do that with the old car so we are going to with this one. we are also going to use a 5 gallon cell instead of the 8 in the other car. thanks for your interest and i will keep you updated.
