Whitbread
Vendor , w/Business number
As many of you know, I work for RCR during the day. The owner was recently approached by a customer/friend/financial backer to build 2 very unique cars that I, and my business, have been asked to be an integral part of.
The first will be a Superlite SL-C with a CBEA TDI and audi 01E trans built to set a record traveling cross country on one tank of fuel. We should be able to increase the fuel capacity to ~60 gallons without intruding on passenger space.
The second car will be our replica of the 2001-2002 Cadillac LMP car. I'm in the middle of building the first prototype chassis right now. This one will get the 4.2L Audi V8 tdi mated to a corvette T56 transaxle. Planned mods will be a full emissions delete and adding an atmosphere turbo to create a two stage system to bring output into the 600hp realm.
Updates will follow as projects progress.
As a teaser, here's a custom SL-C chassis to house a 5.5L Ferrari V12 that was finished today. There's obviously quite a bit more work, but this is the base of it all.
