This machine is going to be so awesome!

G'day from Australia 🇦🇺

this has got to be one of the if not the coolest builds on youtube!

A suggestion… Use your syvex to open the centre diff once wheel slip has finished at the start, 2nd gear onwards to save transmission wind up with the different circumference tyres, while spinning it should be ok but once hooked there will be a lot of force generated 👍

Grymt projekt! Hoppas du hinner bli klar! 😀

Clutch pedal parachute release would be good aslong as it doesn't get accidentally pressed. Probably move it away from the brake more. Good job with the parts 😎👍

Really looking forward to see and hear this monster youre building. Keep up the good work!

Wow learning cnc by yourself i could never do that your doing great can't wait to see the car racing.

Under heavy acceleration the rear tyres will compress and the front tyres radius increase. Fitting a slightly smaller tyre in the front than what is theoretically correct should be to you advantage. Then program to disconnect when rear has enough traction, probably.

Nice progress, go on Peter! Hope you can pull it together by the time the tour will start! It is mindblowing that you can drive such a custom built car on the street in Sweden legally! Can't wait to see the next episode :)

Good luck with progress, really enjoying see it all coming together. Nothing better than a looming deadline!

Great. Love the progress and planning. 👍👍 Insane and awesome👏👏 Someone has been watching Cleetus' "Eagle" build and their use of Titanium. 😁 Pedal activated Parachute sounds good, will need practice to be used smoothly and properly of course

What a fine piece of engineering. So nice to see it coming all together, you are a magician Peter!

learned so much from you over the years. thanks alot and i hope you will finish this build in time

Allready looks so cool. Can't wait to see it roll!

You are truly talented and inspiring. Great work mate!

I'm just gonna suggest add another protection bar on the top of the front section of fuel tank, for extra protection in-case the worse thing happen. I'm intrigued to see how the parachute pedal turned out, I think it is a good idea! I believe you could at least make the car functional within 6-7 weeks, good luck!

That’s kind of project I like. Keep going with your awesome "sleeper beast" 🥰

Clutchpedal as release for the chute sounds awesome!

Awesome! I honestly think You made the right desision about keeping those frame parts for a project like this, i mean beside all the work a steelframe would be very heavy in comparision and titanium frame would be realy cool, but horendeously expensive in material alone and titanium is super hard to weld in a safe way so it does not show fatigue cracks ower time (i guess You probably know all that allredy, but for those who newever worked with titanium).

I love the look of that old Volvo and my dream car is a Lamborghini and you are mashing them together beautifully.

Great progress Peter 😀 those CNC mounts look excellent

Cracking build!

Its a good idea to use a air ram to let the ecu actuate the parachute if the car has over a threshold of slide acceleration when in dragracing mode. If the car is sliding the parachute will straighten the car. Also important to keep potential fluid leaks away from the tires of the car

"Making brackets is time-consuming". Can confirm. I got some new fairings for my track motorcycle, and although many of the parts fit with the same brackets as the old one, some do not, and it took a good amount of time to come up with the right shape, holes in the right place , try to fit it, adjust some angle or something a bit - and sometimes you find that you bent something the wrong direction, or drilled the wrong end, etc, and you get to do it again! :)

Beautiful machined parts Peter!

Again a nice video and some very nice engineering!

Time schedule with this build is crazy Peter. One I made, far less complex took me five years to complete

awsome progress bro

It's a great project. What is most crazy is the schedule! I couldn't imagine finishing that in seven weeks. Hardly 7 months 😂

A lot of work has been done.

Härlig video igen Peter!

Foot pedal parachute is a cool idea. If you have onboard air, could also have it setup to be controlled by a air cylinder and a valve, then use a button on the steering wheel to activate the chute so you don’t have to try and move your feet. Could also have some safeties built in the throw the chute if the car is out of control

The foot actuated parachute is a great idea

Love the idea of the clutch pedal to use the parachute

Peter that beast is lookin good 👍

There is a company in the states called LRP he makes custom wheels for drag racing he may be able to help you out with that I love the Volvo I can’t wait to see it run it’s very original and cool

Great work yet again! I think a parachute pedal should be more out-of-the-way than a clutch pedal, to make sure it doesn't get activated accidentally - perhaps more off to the side, like a parking brake pedal. Looking forward to the next episode, as always!

Your exactly correct about titanium on the US Pro-mod style cars. The main structure is usually made from 4130 to meet SFI specs, and a lot of the mounting structure, and some suspension parts are made from Ti, and will typically save 30-40kg over making it from 4130.

Yes ,brilliant idea.

Ser väldigt lovande ut! Hoppas du hinner så man får se den in action på street week!

Oh man, cant wait for next video 😅

Du är så duktig Peter !

A lot of work completed this episode, even if it doesn't look like much. Keep it up 😃 The music in the first few minutes made it a little hard to hear you, but it wasn't too bad

It will be ready Sir 🔥

Detta kommer bli så jäkla bra när den är klar.👌 Men jag är skeptisk till att ha skärmen kopplad till pedalen 🤔

Crikey Peter, do you ever sleep?!? How do you manage to get so much done in such a short time?? It looks like you still have a lot to do but at this rate I have no doubt you will be ready for Speed Week!! And you're doing the videos, etc. at the same time... what is your secret to such high productivity?? Looks awesome and can't wait to see the final result tearing down the strip!

You should a arcdroid cnc. Grind hard plumbing use one of those. Super handy for fabricating mounts and such.

superb.

Stört va bra det blir 😍

Can you use sprockets and chain or belt inbetween front driveshaft so that gear ratio is repaired to correct between tire sizes and axles. Also can be achived with 3 gears (to keep right turning direction).

så jävla coolt bygge asså verkligen next level från 245:an skulle var coolt och se den nån gång irl hälsningar från kumla

What about an electronic parachute release, so you can make it a button on the steering wheel? I think it might be less prone to accidental activation 😄

Svenska Rob Dahm. Sjukt imponerande bygge och hastighet på dom!

By having larger tires in the front (overdrive the front wheels like you said in the video) you might get an unstable car since the rear tires will turn slower it will try to rotate like if you would lock the rear tires. A small overdrive might not do much, but its better to have the rear wheels turning faster than the fronts.

Check the rules of your racing organization to see if they require mechanical chute activation.

G'day from Indonesia 🇮🇩

America checking in!

You could redrill the Audi hubs to a bolt pattern that you want for your preferred wheels......och, mycket bra jobbet! Hej hej från Oregon och Älgered (Bergsjö, Gävleborg).

Hey up it's coming on well, fingers crossed for street week. Couldn't you trigger the parachute electronically from your steering wheel

The stearing shaft is supposed to have an 11 degree difference between the ujoints it will help with stability at high speeds

Fina CNC delar! :) förstår att det är bara stetiskt men en tips på hur kan få bättre övergångar när man fräsar från 2 hål är ett hål rak genom som kan användas som referens.

belak industries or t1race development have beadlock 18" wheels

Excellent idea for parachute release but I would move it to the side like the foot parking brake so I don't accidentally "clutch" in a race and lose 😅

@2.05 Carbon ceramic brakes and iron oxide bodywork 😁

You should put the classic Polaris wheels on it when you don't use the slicks.

🏎

Nice build. Can you drive this on the street?

mac fab will beadlock any wheel you send them. could just get a factory wheel done.

I worry you might accidentally release the parachute by accidentally pressing the clutch pedal from instinct, and accidentally have an accident 🤷

Ska du ha "kopplingen" som utlösare så borde du använda en knapp på ratten eller två som "dödmans grepp" så att du inte av misstag utlöser den. Jag tror att du kan använda en del små tunna rör för förstärkning till tex pedalställ och batteri.

❤️‍🔥

hi great videos👍🏻 but why now the background music while you talk, what you say is interesting 100% not the music. really exciting project.

What brand of aluminum radiator do you generally use for these builds? Do you have a favorite brand?

I would send the parachute while driving, then again, I have stomped the brake when I tried to "shift an automatic" ... but perhaps that's just me :D

If I win the lotto, i'm coming to get you to build me a car. You can put 2 K20's in something for me, one for the front axle one for the rear axle.

why dont you redrill the rear hubs to 5x114.3?

Which CAM software are you using to design those nice parts?

Kämpa!

Máster exelent 🔩🔧⚙️💪💯👈🤟🤟🤟

There is Hoosier 27x10.5 DOT slicks available if they'll fit better for you

Jag har sätt att en del bilar i Usa har självutlösande bromsskärm också, en g sensor känner av om bilen börjar gå i sidledes och då skjuter den skärmarna automatiskt. På Sick Week i år så räddade det Kevin Smith KSR Camaro från att bli skrot tex, känns som en bra försäkring.

Om man sätter en högre offset fram, hur påverkar det stabiliteten?

Hur går det med detta projekt nu när klockan tickar ner?

En undran, hur finansierar du detta och kommer du regbesikta med tanke på framförandet på allmän väg?

Is this car going to be registered as an "amatörbyggt fordon" ? From what i remember SFRO doesnt allow Uniballs int the suspension arms ? Or did the change the rules ?

06:10 Could you not make same kinda of mounts for all four bolt, but a tube between them, run that current left hand tube from the chassis to that tube and one tube from the dash bar to the right side. Do you not think those bolt holes on the aluminium will get stretched by the forces of the rear wheels, considering bolts are much harder material? I think all the chassis in the US is 4130 chromoly by the rules, cameron from Cj race cars just spoke about it on his video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ppmqldib0aumhGw.html

👍‍‍🌟👍‍‍

👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Wonder if you could use a CAN signal from an unused button on the wheel to fire a parachute solenoid 🤔

silly question ....if you move the battery could you exit hot air to under the car rather than up through the bonnet - then you would keep standard bonnet ?

NO..! Miss 1 show and finish the car, wide body and all, work out the bugs and mistakes...then you can make the next show/competition COMPLETE..!!! I know you're good but a rush job is always sketchy..!!!
