OK, here are some exclusive behind the scenes pictures for you guys. I'll try to give a little description of each one...to point out some of the details.
I also wanted to mention that we not only fabricated a lot of the carbon fiber parts right here at our Werks1 production building, but we also completely stripped and painted the entire car there too. It was the only way to really keep quality control 100% in...well...control.
In the 2 pics below you can get a good look at all the custom carbon ducting that had to be made to accomodate the front radiators. Also notice that what used to be the trunk now houses the front radiator, which vents out of the hood and provides functional downforce.
This one is pretty self-explanatory. Only a very very keen eye will notice that we had to add several ducts to the bottom of the factory RSR undertray because of the fact that our car is a Turbo. Without them, there would be some serious heating issues.
Again, pretty self-explanatory, but this pic gives you an idea of the lengths we went to in order to make sure the RSR bodywork and paint are flawless. After doing A LOT of work to the Porsche bodywork to make it showroom quality, the entire car was then completely stripped in order to get ready for paint.
Here we are with the interior going back in, the front ducting attached, and a good look at the custom carbon fiber and kevlar reinforced fender liners we built to make it "streetable".
A good look at the rear shows our 68mm VTG turbos, headers, straight-thru exhaust, suspension arms, RSR sway bar setup, and Ohlins 4 ways. Once again, a keen eye will spot our billet PDK pan installed as well.
Our first day of track testing, with our good friend Lucas Luhr behind the wheel. For what it's worth, he absolutely LOVED this car. I think he said "can I take it home?" after he was done...lol.
And lastly, here's a couple Jekyl and Hyde pictures....all black and ready to attack at the track. And looking pretty in our photo studio for the glam shots. You can see these pics and a few more in our Flickr gallery just click the link in my sig.

This thing is really, really sick. I would love to see what kind of a lap time it could put down with a set of slicks.
I didn't see if this is already covered, but what kind of power is this car making?

Serious amount of work and looks fantastic..... with the amount spent why not ship it to the 'ring and post a lap time which proves that this is real and not just bling ?
