@pmak26, I don't believe the rekluse "Spin Safe" clutch is available for the XXR cars. It is my understanding that they don't make a Spin safe for the new engines. @coochas, with your level of exper...

Hi All, I am an open wheel guy with over 10 years in Formula Mazdas but decided to try my hand at a prototype. I know CharleyH from Rennlist where I am a long time contributor. His enthusiasm for t...

I'm going to fully admit, after dropping my Radical off my trailer because the woods slipped out... (thank goodness for the air jacks I was able to get it back up and off the trailer with no damage) I...

@pmak26, They are expensive, but they work really well and are a good investment in my opinion. 🙂

I just purchased many of the components above other than the lifting rig (I have a four post I will use to lift) and the scales (going to use some longacre scales. Looking forward to seeing if I can l...

Very nice write up of the MK offerings. I've always wanted a gantry for my two formula cars and since I am now adding a Radical to the garage, I splurged on the MK gantry which should arrive in a fe...

Forgive me for not knowing, but what triggers the coolant pump to run with the newer ECUs? Is it ignition “on” or does the engine actually need to be running? I like the elegant solution of a proper ...

As standard they were fitted facing towards the inlet of the airbox. To be honest I don't think it will really matter if they are angled off to each side slightly, they just don't want to be backwards...

Hi Rod, I have thought about doing this myself but have never gotten there. I tried adding a heater pad to the swirl pot but its too small and cant get the energy into it. So for now I use a hair ...

Thanks John! The mechanical water pump housing and impeller is custom manufactured by Radical but the drive shaft, seals and back plate is OEM Suzuki. You need to look into the leak, it could be the m...

Hi Beau, I have a 2014 SR3 and was also looking to raise the steering wheel a bit and also ditch the small round design which I found uncomfortable on the wrists in longer sessions. To achieve this as...

Hi @beau, there was essentially never any issues with steering wheel height until the XX generation came out. While the steering wheel position was the same the dash was now built into the steering wh...

No problems Rod! Larger airbox is better to have. That is the standard set up on the trumpets - don't think you will get the long ones on the ends anyway but the order is not too critical - the SR8 ru...

@rjbender Morning Rod, they are a custom part and not made by Suzuki so not readily available unfortunately. Its Radical, Jenvey or RLM for them! Just to add Rod those trumpets Josh has are ones that ...

Those are OEM Gen 1 Suzuki Hayabusa Josh.
