20b RCR Superlite-Coupe

[Kentetsu]

Damn, all the cool shit happens out in Cali!

It blows my mind that this thing is going to be a street legal car. When you get it finished, maybe we'll take up a collection to get you out to the Deals Gap Rotary Rally.

Anyway, I think I might have just found my "project" for when I retire. Only 22 years to go. lol.

Thanks a lot for the information, I'll check that link out too. Very cool project you've got and I wish you the best of luck...



Edit: These guys are located in Michigan, so I guess I have to take back that comment about all the cool stuff being in Cali.

Rx-Heven... Dave, its really coming along. Any new pictures or updates? I spoke to the guy that runs RCR about a year or two ago. Great cars. I love both yours and the P4 bodies. I have really thought about this a fair amount. Originally with the Ultima and than more recently the RCR. Only thing that bothers me is the lack of opening windows. Are you good with the little sliding square plexi window and air conditioning?

Incubus... The RCR square tube, semi-monocoque chassis is absolutely state-of-the-art racing chassis design. A round or oval tube chassis could be made to be about as good, but assembly is a lot more accurate and quicker with square tubes. Their P4 is an updated version of Lee Noble's old P4 and Noble is the guy that designed the Ultima, so there's a lot of common lineage with some great cars.

Gordon, not to change from the thread, but do you have pics of your current cars? The list in your sig is quite impressive. 850 6-speed, 3 20Bs... etc...
