Into the sidepods? What volume is your fueltank?

As for engine, do you have the new FR12? I'm working with the new one, and it still only just fits.

You won't for the tests, but come the races, where fuel comes into play, the car's gonna need one :lol: And if it's not big enough then... we all know what happens. And I'm pretty sure you can't just alter the engine like that.

No there is a little light grey thing contrasting the dark inside of the sidepods, and can be seen from all angles.
