Cheers for the link, your car looks real good ! liking those custom headers. What did you do for the radiator ?

 

[SprinterTRD]

The headers were fun to make, like everything else lots of planing.

I made my own custom radiator from a aluminium volvo radiator. I removed the plastic tanks and fabricated some new ones. It tightly fits in between the rails and is 40mm thick.

We are looking at getting the show aired in ozzy, but at the moment we are about half way through this series. It will be avalible on DVD but not till early next year. I will post some updated pics on the website soon. We had 3 cameras on the car when filming it, 2 inside one on the outside and two camera men on the track, Im guessing it will be good for a high 12 sec pass, will find out in 2 weeks time when i take it racing.

i guess thats something you need to do to make the perfect fit,

 

[340i]
