Re: My car design site.

nice start on designing ( i just started drawing). If you wanna go one step further on this you can read an article or two on aerodynamics or something and may i suggest engine specs or your concepts and music on your site?

Oh, go into more detail. I like it. Thanks for the site. I'll try to do that sometime soon. Thanks again SV. By this weekend I should have my "car stats" page updated.

Re: My car design site.

Weight 3150 With composite panels? Lambo got the specific power, but the weight thing (like the F1) is ludacris! HELLO! carbon fiber=5x strenght per weight of steel! 2000 pound civic should weigh like 700 considering aluminum block and increased body strength so it doesn't crack. WTF!

Re: My car design site.

Im currently building a 300 hp. version of a 4- stroke Honda motor converted to two stroke with a turbo n intercooler setup meant for a 1.8 liter. The unibody structure is of epoxy and glass cloth w/honeycomb core. My weight is projected at 400 lbs. plus occupant.
THAT is as real as it gets. your 800 hp. V10 in a 800lb. vehicle is only allowing like 300 pounds of weight to haul around a big block. there's no f-ing way. Are u gonna use unobtanium for your chassis(LOL)!
