Do you have any wing pictures Greg. Ron is holding out on us.

Sweet rack by the way.

Ron

Will the wing be a top mount or traditional bottom mount? Will the uprights be rearward of the rear bumper or come up through the rear deck lid?

For the three link are you using the shock style decoupled setup like Payton went to or the std kit PK started with? Will the rear link be adjustable from the drivers seat?

What front spindles are you using? It is coming along nicely!

We have a name for people like you...... it begins with "ASK" and ends with "HOLE".......

LOL

Hey -- you're my competition! You don't expect us to spill our guts on every secret do you?? Oh! I think PICTURES work better in your case anyway you little crayon eater....

GW, So you are running the Stang against his Torino? :peepwall:


I had to get in on the fun, lol

Does he have a Torino?? Oh wait!! Yeah -- I remember now..... But I don't think that's a race car. I think it's a metallurgical study for corrosion and the speed at which iron oxide forms.

OMG, i'm in tears :lol:

Ron - another question about the structure, this time the cage.

Based on pics of other builds it seems typically people use 1 piece front pillars that extend from either the main rear hoop or the roof hoop to the floor. In this build the front pillar is a short piece attaching the roof hoop and dash bar. I also notice the dash bar isn't bent but instead welded together. Without having any real knowledge of what works best I always assumed it was better to bend the steel rather than weld it together. This build seems to prove my assumptions wrong and in general this looks a bit easier than bending in tight spots. Is there any difference or benefit in strength when bending vs welding a joint?

I have your answer ------ I'm not crashing the car so it doesn't matter.

I believe that but I assume you may let Alex and/or Rob drive at some point.....

Its all about placement, force direction-continuation-pathways and proper use of nodes. A straight piece of tubing will resist a bending force more so than a bent piece of tubing,even if welded. Its safe to have a bent tube but that depends on force loading, support (nodes) and directions.
