 At the suggestion of designer Paul Brown, the intake was promptly removed with a Sawzall, split down the middle and remounted with the two halves of the intake on their sides, forming a new intake with the same cross-section and lowering the car enough to meet the regulations.Unfortunately the car still suffered from its poor reliability record, succumbing to electrical failure after a mere five laps.After these three failed race attempts, money for the project was beginning to run out as sponsorship was not forthcoming.
