Neat build. And it looks like James found a new “road”. He doesn’t mention it being his new spot but that’s awesome if it is.

Word on the street says this is a 6-7 hr drive for him over into Kentucky.
Anxious to see what he can do with a Runway like this!

Very cool!
Looks like an easy "walk in a park" speed of 173MPH too
But I think he's going to have some serious challengers @King blitz @StephenSchandelmayer -of Extra Extendo Chassis- Very soon.

I wish Raz would be a spokes person for safety by example on his runway.
This is the way all speed runs should be done.

Damn. Long drive. Was hoping it would be regular for him. But yea, with access to that runway we should see some amazing stuff out of him!! Can’t wait.

LOL, thanks!
I sold it off sadly to fund the next project and a 3D printer. This is the one I wish I could get back....

because I'm no where near James McCoy's league when it comes to speed runs.thats one person I would not want to compete with..that was a beeeeutiful pass I must say.
.I am curious to know how long his build is .Already on it
i informed my attorney on copy cat infringement.i noticed his tower to tower center brace is very similar to mine .how dare him but I must say if it's the same as mine awesome choice cause it's beeeeutiful Attachments

This guy is missing side skirts. Every open wheel vehicle should have them for better aero

Pretty sure James McCoy knows what he’s doing. He’s done this a couple times.

He obviously has done well. His speeds are great, and he’s very safe about it.
The aerodynamics of open wheeled vehicles will always benefit from side skirts, just as they benefit from a front splitter. There’s a reason Formula1 cars have side skirts, and why they continually push the boundaries on what the rules allow for them. It creates downforce without adding drag, and stops air from being sucked under the chassis from the sides. It also streamlines the air from the vacuum created behind the front tires.

You’ve done so much excellent work here! I love the rock deflectors on the chassis, the front splitter, and the suspension setup you have! I just got my 3D printer back operational (glass bed shattered from too good of adhesion with PC-CF) I’d love to send my Batwing your way, just honing in the printed hinge pin to work with my .6mm nozzle now. It’s on my Limitless thread if you want to check it out.Thanks my brotha ..
Aerodynamics is really one of those subjects you have to study to get, common sense doesn’t apply there. My first taste of this was with car wings. Common sense tells you to put the filet or rolled edge on the top of the leading wing edge, but it’s actually the opposite. By putting the rolled edge at the top you’d be speeding up the air on top, which actually creates lift.
