Hi,

AlexGTT - Some Therapy for You.

Here is a Pic of the Fezza at Jerez, 'leased'
from another Forum showing the set up at
Jerez, where it was working very well but
apparently heating up the Tyres to much.

Moving it forward ala MaClaren for the max
of the 'coanda' effect is the way the
rummor mill is suggesting they
will more than likely go.

If the High Nose stays for 2013 then I doubt there
will be anybody running a Pull rod front.

Regards,

The Gorilla

I remember seeing these images on F1 Technical. That set up burnt the bodywork quite badly and you can see some extreme heat damage to the inside edge of the Ferrari's rear tyres.

Hi,

Looks like the ''Rain'' might be helpful
this weekend after all if it vears over
Hockenheim.

Wow! Thats an awesome build! Quite an interesting wing though??

Well done!!

Hi,

''............''Quite an interesting wing though??

Rear Wing is same as the ITC Rear wing that was
used in various designs by E30 M3 / Merc 190 Klasse 1 /
Alfa etc in DTM and ITC 93 onwards.

Weighs only 3kg complete and creates 75% more
areo / downforce than the E30 M3
even with large DTM Gurney flap.

The Drenth Sequential has been removed and
replaced with a Getrag.

Sequential is awesome on Track and an absolute
nightmare anywhere else.

Not only that the Drenth DG 400 drives via
the 6th Gear so every 2000 km its rebuild time.

Not a problem when Racing but makes for
expensive Track Day time where nothing
counts.

The Final evolution of the Car is being pieced
together at the moment with even a move
to ''4 Pots'' in the engine bay etc.

The Gorilla.

Thanks for the info! Seems like an awesome machine....! I can understand the swop for Getrag... rebuilding the sequential so often must be a costly nightmare...

I'm amazed that the wing only weighs 3KG and yet its capable of adding so much downforce! Real work of art that!

Down here we never got the E30 M3...however my other toy is an E30 325is Turbo...Makes 450WHP....

I love e30's...they will always be a part of my garage!

One day....some how....I will own an E30 M3. Love them to bits....and a race version like yours...I'd die for !!

Hardly a measure of success as the original could be rubbish!
