Pics as promised

[Rhino Racing]

Here is a couple of pics of the race car....... ..as promised.
I have built this from scratch....bare shell up.Has taken me 3 1/2 months so far ... working on it when i can.
It is a v-p with vs fibreglass panels all round.
It is very close to going....... Fingers crossed!
Engine is a v6 series 2.
Will look heaps better once the sign writing and race no's go on it.

Still looking for a series 2 flywheel tho..... Rest of the car is no good to me without one!!!!!
Any help would be appreciated.

Possibly they are too big...if you want to email them to me, I will happily resize, and post, them for you.........

[stocky]

nope hakhawk was right. hes trying to link to an image on his C drive, not one thats been uploaded to the internet

[Rhino Racing]

Thanks guys...... i did originally try to upload them.... and they wouldnt go...... mate told me that i needed to give you the path for it..... which i thought was crap......
But i had tried too many times to care anymore and thought i would give it a go.
Hopefully pics coming soon........Watch this space!

as rat said then, theyre probably too big to upload, either shrink em yourself and upload, or send them to rat and he can do it for you.

Thanks for your help guys..... Finally got pics up and running with all of your help.
Thanks again Rat for the offer........I am a bit of a newbie with forums etc.......But hey, at least i am learning.

[Rhino Racing]

Yeah mate,
It is for speedway..... Where does your mate race?
I am in Kingaroy.....Qld.
What sort of car does he have?
Have you ever been for a run with him in his car?
It is a real buzz...... though i havent been racing for a while, so i guess i will be trying to sort myself and the car out this season.
Anyway.. as long as we have fun along the way!
Catchya!

Still looking for a v6 series 2 standard flywheel guys.

Any help would be appreciated!

What's the difference with the flywheels?????

[Rhino Racing]

The series 1 vn came out with a 6 bolt centre.The pcd is Approx 90 mm and weighs 10.1 kg.The flywheel has a bias weight on the back of it..... so it is unbalanced.( to help balance the motor)

Series 2 flywheel is a 8 bolt centre. The pcd is Approx 65 mm and weighs lessthan 9.2 kgs.( so i have been told... un able to get my dirty mitts on one to check the weight for sure.) This flywheel is balanced.
Series 2 engine has a shorter crank by approx 30 mm. So the shape of the back of the flywheel is different.
I have machined up a spacer ( 1 kg) that will allow me to fit the series 1 flywheel to the series 2 motor.....
Only trouble is it means that i will be running a flywheel that is 2 kg heavier than standard series 2..... totally wrong for my application.... if i have got to run this i may as well keep the race car in the shed........ wont get the thing to rev how i need it too.

Holden australia do not have one of these.

Hi there Samoht.
Yeah! Their whole family is full of guys who really know how to steer a car........ All the boys including dad are well known for their achievements.
I personally dont know them, but i have heard of them.
Got a feeling that they have/are changing divisions this season. Dont really know.
Will be really good to get back into racing for a bit of fun!
Cant wait!
Catchya!
