Please do!!

That would be VERY interesting to see just how special the engine really is

Show us pictures of you racing this Ulrich Motorsport racecar. Video would be cool! I assume you are the P. Ulrich?

Abrax · 01-31-2008, 04:29 PM

I've always wanted to see such pictures... Amazing...

318kid · 01-31-2008, 09:44 PM

Wow, this is a work of art! I love it!

Driver position is pretty far forward but it may be due to the rules.

WOW!!!

Boyracer · 02-01-2008, 07:28 AM

Nice photos! Airbox photos were especially useful for me.

Years ago my brother and I had Triumph TR3. It was the only car I ever saw that could break down sitting still. It had a cable that you pushed down to open the door. You can see it in the pocket of the door trim.

i especially like this picture of the car... they pay so much attention to detail, just amazing

swiss318is · 02-02-2008, 09:37 AM

Hey Swiss, you are the man! Thanks for the pictures. Amazing stuff. The foot box photos gave me some good ideas for mine. Do you remember if they were using bolts or rivots to mount the foot box?

I'm itching to see details of the suspension pieces, especially the rear.

So what's the story Swiss? How'd you get access to the car? Do you work for a BMW race team? I saw your reflecton in one of the pics...BMW-Sauber???
