    Re: Factory Consulier/Mosler RACE cars

    Jacob, Super cool to see you're on the forum! Ronnie had his cars out at the Winter Park Concours last November ( blue raptor and red targa )
    I've had mine out to some shows, but I'm staying pretty local to Orlando. Seems like whenever I have it out for long hauls , I break stuff.
    Last time it was the cat rattling around and turning sideways in the exhaust, time before that was the alt locking up. Right now I've got a weird squeak that sounds like a dry u-joint and I sure don't want that thing coming apart on the hwy.
    I try to get out to the monthly downtown winter park show, but I've been busy fixing stuff lately.
    I'll definitely let you know when I'll be out at the next fairly large show.

    This is a screen cap from the Motor Trend Mosler interview showing some of the GTP race cars. Wonder where this is..

    Look at #19 and #69 close .
    It looks like #19 has some kind of connection for headlight covers.
    I have been dreaming of how to make some that blend in well....they will have to be removable, my dream does not see clear covers.
    Sheet fiberglass is made in many thicknesses easily cut and finished.
    I am having the car painted soon and it would be good to paint them at the same time.
    A trip to this warehouse is in the near future I have a good connection to get in.
    I will be sure to take lots of pictures.

    Warren wanted to make UPS electric powered in the early 90's.
    The van bodies were made for that purpose it did not go to far ...great idea they leave from one spot and could return for charging.
    Watch (Death of the Electric Car) and learn a lot and be pissed off at the government at the end of the movie.

    Early nineties was too early for decent batteries.

    If you're going opaque on the covers, make them big so they overlap the light cutout on every side. Maybe some 1/32" lexan that can flex along with the body curve. I was thinking adhesive some mounting tabs on so you don't have to drill the body.

    PICS!!!! Waiting for pics.

    I saw that too, was thinking it was a photo distortion.

    I dug it out and looked they look better in the photo.
    I was mostly interested in the cool covers .
    Not loving the screws but that does make them removable...easily.
    And an extra sweet porn stash.....in that pic.

    Re: Factory Consulier/Mosler RACE cars

    Heres a silver one, don't know if its been posted before in one of the other pics. There is a dark blue one in the pack in the Miami 1992 race but its hard to see.

    There is some video on youtube of some of the 93 and later supercar series stuff after the GTPs left if you want to see the guys they ran against in action.

    Here is a side view of the slick 50 car. I tried doing 964/lotus/callaway video searches for 92 and prior supercar races but no dice.

    I wonder if that car has a TIII in it? I noticed that it has the same scoop on the engine cover as Warren's TIII car.

    Re: Factory Consulier/Mosler RACE cars

    warning... zombie thread

    So...does anyone out there have photoshop skills? and does said person want to come up with some ideas for race livery?

    I'd love to see one that's setup like a factory sponsored car with some awesome graphics. hint hint, just sayin

    One thing that's better than seeing a race car on the street is seeing a race car on the street in full race garb.
