    Love it! Please don't ever stop showing us every step of the build like some of the other channels have. Glad to see even as this channel grows, you still keep us in the loop as the cars get built for the good and the bad. Im here to see it all! Mr2 is going to be one hell of a force to be reckoned with that's for damned sure 💪

    Don’t add weight initially, the weight you removed plus having the CoG lower will transfer a good bit less weight to the rear under acceleration.

      great idea, he could make small aluminum plates to fit up in different spots, and easy to remove, underneath the chassis and direct air, not just jam it up underneath, causing a swirl, and also causing the car to fight against it.
      people don't think about under the car very much. but with those plates. he could make it very much more aerodynamic under there.
      * also would be a huge safety measure for track racing to catch any fluids that spilled, blew out, etc.....

    Your welds look real nice, but you might wanna consider backfilling the unit with argon so there's no oxygen inside the weld site. I've been welding for a long time before I retired recently. Don't take my word for it though.....ask Kevin from KSR who built Mullet how important that is. Really like what you're doing with the MR2. You're headed for being the fastest in the world with that. I'll be watching and cheering you on. 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙

      great thought, if you are just sitting around thinking about car stuff. .
      im not being sarcastic either.
      engineers in labs, and car people(in general) in their garages have tried electric style turbos. .
      and the jury is still out. .
      some would swear by them, and some would say they dont work for the amount of energy needed to be put into them
      but seriously. it is a rather cool idea

    Flat floor next? That engine bay and trunk must act like a parachute at high speed?
    Aluminium plate from the weight plate and all the way out the back into a mild diffuser combined with a drag wing and I reckon a few mph are easily on the table.
    Do it in carbon if that's how you're playin😋
    I'm guessing that the engine is going to be putting out some serious top end?
    Decreased drag, decreased lift.

    You could also raise the rear of the car to get more weight to the front end instead of adding weight. Or lower the front to get more weight to the front. U could definitely get that bias closer before adding weight. Keep it up boyz!!!
