managed to get the majority of it welded, lots of grinding to do and a welder still to fix it would benefit from a little attention in the collector too lol

Not sure how long they would last on your beast. You can get wider ones though, and I guess they would be alright for a few trips down the strip, But the Formula student cars are normally sub-200kg. https://www.hoosiertire.com/Fsaeinfo.htm Edit: Avon also do a 10" which is 7" wide, but smaller outer diameter http://www.avonmotorsport.com/resource-cen...formula-student Edited by jakejakejake1 on 11th Jun, 2014. |

I'm not sure if this is going to get to full boost and then do burnouts until the tyres pop or just spin the rims inside the tyres but either way it should be fun. |

i have a few tricks up my sleeves to try get some decent power down, i want to try it on these ( or some road tires) first hopefully they will slip before something else breaks then i will be looking seriously for some decent tires/wheels before winding the boost up, i hope to have it running before mitp ( not that it will be going or anything) but if i play my cards right over christmas i will pull the engine and have it sleeved and forged pistons and H beam rods ready for pushing towards higher power and hopefully some track time next year

I just wondered as it looks like the collector is made from mig wire!
