I met a guy 20 years ago who put a Corvette engine into a Porsche 918. His main issue was keeping rubber in contact with the pavement, and that was with the engine much closer to the rear wheels.

In any case, this build is impressive and I look forward to seeing the results.

Honestly even in the ~250 mi we've put on her the weather hasn't been above 65 degrees, so the tires were never "fully" warmed up. Running Yoko AD08R's on all 4. But we're looking forward to seeing what these can do in conjunction with Delicious' traction control. I can say right out of the box the traction control is pretty amazing. We'll really put her to the test here shortly

Built for longevity. And track time. And keeping it together while we do the latter. Can't wait to take it to the track and provide some feedback.

Also, here's a little update on how she sits with the new Revv livery :D

You didn't buy snow tires for the winter??? JK. Badass build guys. I've loved reading your progress as time has gone by and I can't wait to have Mark at SCR do some magic to an engine of mine one day! I actually think I saw your motor up there one day when my wife and I went to visit. :)

With this weather I'm thinking about it haha, chomping at the bit to get her out! Yeah man Mark @ SCR is the man and Peter the lead tech there definitely knows his stuff. Super grateful that we had such a stellar team with so much experience working on the build. Highly recommend those guys
