CONRAD GRUNEWALD; FORMULA DRIFT 2010 Camaro

blu808 · 02-21-2010, 06:01 PM

We are changing some stuff with the fuel system right now. We are also machining the front spindles, and working on the steering angle. The car goes to the dyno on Tuesday morning, then back down to Dynamic Auto Sport to get another tune, since the engine has now been broken in.

blu808 · 02-21-2010, 06:03 PM

Yea the car is pretty much all ready to go. Just have to clean up all the wiring and lines going everywhere.

Can i have that Dmax banner?

Did you guys do the suspension arms in house?

Planning on selling any aftermarket stuff for the new camaro?

blu808 · 02-21-2010, 06:11 PM

Im sure D-max will hook you up with a banner. Call up and talk to Bernard.

Press release coming soon for Camaro products.

Bebop · 02-23-2010, 02:32 AM

blu808 · 03-17-2010, 12:06 AM

The Hankook, CGR, Blu808 Camaro will be running Blu808 A arm conversion control arms.

Here is a prototype picture. More coming tomorrow.

YOitzJDM · 03-17-2010, 12:21 AM

are those FD legal?

blu808 · 03-17-2010, 12:31 AM

Yes. They still retain all the factory pickup points.

blu808 · 03-22-2010, 09:57 PM

54 degrees of steering angle.

110octane · 03-22-2010, 10:37 PM

What is the degree of ackerman with those Blu808 units installed?

GSXRJJordan · 03-22-2010, 10:37 PM

Lolwhut. Put the tie rod back on Luke! :P

techtrix · 03-22-2010, 10:54 PM

those look like the arms i made a few months ago for my new BMW...

blu808 · 03-23-2010, 02:39 PM

Yea Mike. Those look really similar. The whole virtual pivot point setup had to go.

There is no ackerman angle with this setup. So for time attack we will be putting the original setup back together.

Piner · 03-23-2010, 03:13 PM

thats sick! soo are we going to see some reverse entries with that ish

Hubert Young · 03-23-2010, 03:20 PM

Impressive work!! First glance of the earlier pictures of the car looked like you could not get much angle. Yea, we are definitely going to see some reverse entries!!! lol!
