I'm currently in the early build and planning stages of the project.
The What :. Time Trials Max category is a pretty much open ruleset, save a few small pieces, factory car wheelbase, engines must remain in the same origination, no tube frames.
I'm working to build a Scion FRS for this category, in the Max 3 ruleset. What that means, 2500lbs or 95% of factory weight with driver. NA factory engines under 4.5l or Factory turbo engines under 2.9l.
I'm going to be using a Maserati F136s, 4.2l and 395hp with dry sump oiling from the factory.
The Why : a certain group of competitors think the Cayman GT4 cannot be beat in that class. My goal is to prove them wrong. By a lot.
The When : TTNats 2023, October 12th, to be specific
The How : a lot of sleepless nights, bounced checks, blood, sweat, and a lot of tears.
So the reason I'm posting this in the fabrication side, is I'm going to be doing 95% of all of the fabrication. I was looking for some insight and "Hey dumbass, don't do it this way because X reason.".
I'm chronicling the process on YouTube, because why not?
Feel free to ask me anything about this project.
