Tungsten Ballasts For Racecar on 2040-parts.com
Charlotte, North Carolina, United States
|
This is a Tungsten alloy ballast for use as a racecar counterweight. It is used in racecars because of Tungsten's amazing density. Even though this block measures only 6"x 3 5/8" x 2 5/8" it weighs appx 35 lbs. As a point of comparison an exact same shaped block of lead would only weigh appx 21 lbs! A block of pure steel only appx 15 lbs! So if space is critical (like in a racecar) this is the biggest bang for your buck. The tungsten alloy is called Densalloy. The chemical composition is as follows: 95% Tungsten 3.5% Nickel (used as a binder) and 1.5% iron.
There is a small threaded hole on either end (does not go through the block) that is off-set by about 1/4" from center. Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks! |

Porsche 918 RSR
Thu, 13 Jan 2011Following an absence of four years from the NAIAS, Porsche had been promising an all new concept to its North American contigency. The 918 RSR is exactly that. Evolving from the 2010 918 Spyder concept shown in Geneva, the RSR stays true to the overall theme of the Spyder but adds a roof and race-specific elements.
Mitsubishi Delica D:5
Tue, 07 Nov 2006Arriving in Japan early next year is the new Mitsubishi Delica D:5, the fifth generation of a model series that began in 1968, and the third new model the company has launched this year after the eK Wagon and Pajero. Mitsubishi says the Delica was developed to 'fuse the comfort of a minivan with the powerful performance of an SUV' and uses 2.4-liter engine with four-wheel-drive. The styling of the Delica takes its cues from the Mitsubishi Concept-D:5 unveiled at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show, with strong graphics and perched stance.
