Sneak Peek: Home-Built Pikes Peak RacerPosted on July 16, 2018July 17, 2018byKhiem DinhThe brakes are Brembo calipers with 2-piece rotors that are fed cooling air through ducts. The 13” OZ wheels don’t leave a lot of space for the Brembo brake system. The front hub is pretty carved out to reduce weight. Even the ribs have a hole in the middle to shave mass. The rear suspensions is common motorsports inboard pushrod formula car stuff. From the looks of it, there is also a provision for a third spring. Here you can see the speed sensor reading off the axle. Check out all the mounting options for the suspension control arms. Awesome if you know what you’re doing and a good way to screw up handling if you don’t.RelatedPrevious page 1 2 3 4 5 6Next pageRelated TopicsPikes PeakHoneywell GarrettturboturbochargerRoad Race Cars Previous Article TechTesting Vektor Performance Headers for the 991.2 Porsche 911 Carrera!Posted on July 15, 2018July 16, 2018byMike KojimaView Post Next Article FeaturesWATCH: “Drift League – Round 1 at Irwindale 2018” by Keep Drifting FunPosted on July 18, 2018July 17, 2018byJeff NaeyaertView Post 4 commentsAny chance of us getting to see the other details of the car later?ReplyI would like to see a full feature on this one, the sneak peak was nice but such a tease!ReplyWhat a cool project.
