The rules were changed in 2009 which required us to make major modifications to our chassis to accommodate the cockpit template (which was huge).  This dictated a total redesign of the suspension since the A-arms had to be shorter than what we would like.  This car continued with the unsuspended “aero into the anti-roll bar” and the Honda F4i normally aspirated gasoline package.  We designed an intake manifold that had very intricate internal flow passages and built it using a plastic 3D printer.  This engine is one of the most powerful that we have ever had from a normally aspirated 600.
