getting some traction for the Blurr

[24valvenotak]

why does everyone have to get sooo butt hurt on here about something joel says?

its not like he is going out of his way to slander sls or anything. full race uses a robot. who cars.

on a side note, do you run a quick lube out of your garage or was there a hell of a sale that day?

It's not a secret, Shayne DOES NOT weld our manifolds.

Ok, that may be true, like I've said, I've seen you weld them. I thought perhaps he was helping out. Just to clear the air then Nick, does he cut flanges for you guys? I'm not trying to stir shit up, just trying to put this to rest once and for all.

No, we drew up and programed all our own flanges and are currently cutting them @ my buddies work until our machine arrives. Our own machine in was picked up yesterday and is in transit as we speak from GA. Hoping to have it here and running w/in 2 weeks.

Anyways, back on topic...

Yeah, I couldn't decide if I could afford to do the whole works this year, so I kept changing my mind. Now I waited long enough that there isn't time to do it so it's getting done without the 25.5 this year. Just have to go slower than 8.50's I guess.

:icon_rendeer:

ok Im stupid what is a "25.5"

rollcage maybe, not sure

[KA-T_240]

Its a cage. Now if someone could inform up on the specific details of one, that would be awsome.

[fallguy]

It's the rollcage certification needed to run up to 7.50's. You need cage surrounding driver plus slew of other bars under the car. Basically a jungle gym.

[DaveH]

25.5 is the SFI specification for the rollcage needed for 7.50 in a unibody car (as Fallguy said). It's basically a disaster of pipes running everywhere, lots of pipes in the floor, roof, etc.

[weshole]

Something tells me that even if it's only certified to 8.50's, there will be some low 8 high 7 passes ran by the blurr. And a few warnings to slow down will be given.:rolleyes:

[Turbo5Oh]

is the 25.5 the cool halo cage with like the little compartment between a zillion bars where u sit?

[DaveH]

This is one view of a 25.5 cage, you can't see all the crap in the floor.

damn thats why I like having a pair of frame rails under my fat ass

[Turbo5Oh]

i knew dave was a closet mustang fan. why else would he have a pic of a cage in a mustang

[musthavemuzk]

so with this cage certified to 7.50 how much more power is needed to make up for the added weight of it?

how much does it stiffen the car to better transfer power to the ground?
and any other info would be cool too.
