as for the Original Runduce hood it is made through collaboration with Voltex and is not in production just yet. I'll let people know once that hood becomes available.

Any Lap times posted for this event? Looks like that Runduce Blue STI is pulling away from the pack.

Yes it actually won the 5 lap battle of the "new" models.
The only car excluded was the Jun EVO X. Which is good because that sucker was lapping 2-3 seconds faster than the rest of the new cars.

If its japanese they probably are real vents (not blocked off)
The benefits would be lower under hood temperature, esp if those vents extend back enough to above our turbine area.

Anyone else think that the tires on the car in the last photo will be done after that race? Maybe the fender too?

Does anyone know what is the size and offset of the wheels that are on these cars. I especially like the Advan RS wheels in the first pic. I want to make my car look like the car in some of those pics. Clean but agressive.
