stick to the functional silver.....but i do looove goooolld

Silver, keep the punters looking for all those beautiful body mods.

I like the silver and take a look at DEI stuff as it is not only heat but Sound. So you get the best of both worlds.

LOL Mario! I think we all are :lostmarbles:

We are going to go with the silver.

Our resident suspension engineer "Justin" is in Pennsylvania at Penske hand assembling the racing shocks for G5.R right along with the tech assembling the Formula One shocks.

So is he getting college credits for this ??

Not sure Marty but he should! Both Nathan and Justin will be attending a racing program were they get to build a mini Formula One race car. So they should be a big contribution the the team.

The shocks are made and hes flying back. He is so exited on how much he learned while at Penske!

On G5.R the rear cradle is finish. Haven't weight it yet to see what the weight different is but I can tell you you can curl this one with one arm. The factory cradle needs two people to carry it and your huffing it.

Being that these are not being made to turn a profit, nothing but the highest quality parts are being used. As an example, prices on rod end range from $20 to $120. These are on the top end side.

Al,The cradle look's awesome.Those shock's are sexy!!!!!!

This is one of my favorite threads to date. I can't wait to see this car at Sema

Al just amazing!! Your boys are just killing it!!

Thanks guys!

Unfortunately we wont be making SEMA as the car got hung up on the paint side again this year. Last year we didn't make SEMA for the same reason as we only had two weeks left by the time it got out of paint. Basically it needs a complete repaint as all the panels have battle scars from the working on it. Which kinda suck as $7,500 was blown on last years paint job. We were hoping to have it repainted by now but our time schedule hasn't lined up. To redo it with the time we have left would mean rushing it the rest of the build and that lesson was already learned once.
