Can you explain this Hieu?
Thank you,
pin
checked if there's any event called "M Power and 911 Meet" going on either late July or early August. I also gave them the dates that Hieu posted here and asked them if they are having any events on those dates.
July 29th - Christian music concert
August 5th - Skip Barber Driving/Racing School
I sold my Nowack 500N a couple of days ago and I am already thinking of my next project. For powerplant, I am talking with Nowack about adding a blower to my next 500N. If anyone can do it, Nowack is the man for the job. For those not familiar with Nowack, Nowack Sr. was a BMW Engineer, he helped developed the BMW Braham F1 engine and later co-developed the McLaren BMW F1 engine. This man has the knowledge of what makes a BMW unique. I want the powerplant to be a V8 BMW powerhouse, but some of my colleagues have suggested something else. They want me to drop in a 550 GTO V12 @680HP, with the restrictor removed, you're looking at 740HP. Popping in a V12 is not a hard task, and it makes me giggles like a little boy everytime I think of a V12 M5. For transmission, Nowack is going to throw in an E46 M3 SMGII, the only problem is will the SMGII handle 600HP or 680HP???, I prefer the SMGII over the Ferrari F1 paddle shift system because its much faster. I test drove an E46 M3 SMGII in Italy and its sweeeeet!!!!, if it can't handle 600HP+, the Ferrari system is my second choice, its a bit slower, much smoother, and will handle up to 1000HP.
Hood, bumpers, and trunk will be replaced with carbon fiber pieces, I am also reinsulating the car with Ferrari fiber fabric, in all, I am looking to shave off about 250lbs.
Any suggestions???? especially in color choice.
Hieu
