2126 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Do ya think it might be a bit nose heavy? Man, if you could get that thing to hook-up, it would fly! Maybe a driving class taken on how to drive on ice would help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 "The car weighs 2650 with a full tank of gas and with me sitting in the car (I'm 6'4" -220 lbs). The measured weight distribution is 49%F/51%R." It weighs more towards the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It weighs more toward the rear. OK, I quess that means you drive it like a 911 style Porsche!? In easy on the apex and out hard? In any event, its got to be a monster! Pretty cool car however.

Phantom Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 So Mike - does it even have a driveshaft? - or is the tranny tailshaft bolted directly to the differential? I can see why the weight distribution is so good. With 95% of the engine behind the front axle and the driver, transmission cg and differential behaind the center of the car it would tend to be a bit rear biased - kind of like the LS1 in my 280Z.

Mike kZ Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 This is from his web page " The Hemi is adapted to a Corvette 700R4 which is then connected by a 6" long driveshaft to a 1990 Corvette rear suspension that has been narrowed to fit the car."
