We got some pics of the chassis work. please excuse the quality as we had to use a cheapo digital this time around.
Once we get the car finalized we will add in the removable parachute mount.

Incredible build thread here, hats off to AMS. I'll admit, I've read about your parts, many of which I was having a hard time understanding the costs. This thread obviously justifies the costs on the amount of work and engineering that goes into your products. I can only imagine the blank check this guy wrote you though, the 3D scanners are not cheap, let alone the knowledge of how to use them.

Finally some updates. The next step in the casting process is to have our design done in a prototype casting. This brings us to today. We now have a few sets of prototype manifolds that we can begin to develop full kits around, namely Tim Sanders and Chuck's GT-R. With these manifolds we can not only create the remaining components for the kit but we can actually complete two cars and put down some real world numbers and move forward with kit production. Here are a few sample pictures. Keep in mind the prototype casting is not as clean looking as the final production piece but on the inside (where it counts) its top notch!
