I thought we were all ways busy but now it seems the work for us is coming out of the word work. I have hired a more guys in the past few weeks and could use even more if there were quality workers to be found.

I appreciate the reply. It's fine I thought it was worth a shot. If you are racing at Speedway my wife and I may run into you then. I've actually met you a few years back at Upper Room at Canyon Hills.

Which Nova? The orange and blue one or the soon to be yellow and purple 67?

Just wait till you see the rear bumper on the yellow and purple one.

There's always time for the dirt car :rules:

Yo Rodger, I met some guy at Bako speedway last Sat night that said he used to work for you. I didn't get his name.

Have you met Bill Loe yet?

I'm getting there on the new car, I might have the new car together as a roller this weekend. I'm hoping to race it maybe the end of the month, but I have a weekend in Vegas coming up and the following weekend I'm going to the Aussie SuperCar race in Austin with some friends. Is sucks when life gets in the way of your racing career.

You could have met quite a few guys. There are about 5 guys roaming around out there that I have employed at some point in my 12 years. And a few more I have been trying to hire.

I have not met Bill Loe, but have heard about him from Terry Henry at Raceprep, the local boy race car shop and hang out.

Getting much closer on our GT switches.

http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...29-2013002.jpg

Here are some specs on the switches.

Styles available
(On) - Off - (On) Power window switch
Off - On - On Headlight switch
Off - On Off - On switch
Off - (On) Starter switch

These switches are capable of 20 amp on 4-14volt DC current.
They are designed for 150,000 electrical switch cycles
Temperture range of -40 deg C - 85 deg C

The desired hole cut out is a .83 x 1.45 with a panel thickness of .030 - .250.

All parts are made right here in the USA. The switch mechanism is provided by Carling Technologies in Plainville, Ct.

Price will be as follows
1 single switch - 85.00
2 switches for - 160.00 - 80 each
4 switches for - 300.00 - 75 each
6 switches for - 420.00 - 70 each

Initially we will only offer the switch tops in a machined finish. We will work to anodize the tops when we get an idea of what finishes people might like. We made the tops in aluminum to be able to have a long list of color and finish options. You can polish, brush, chrome, anodize, powdercoat, and paint these tops or just leave it with a machine finish.

We will be doing a pre-order special on our website starting next week. We will be trying to put the long list of people and shops that have been interested in these switches into line and trying to group people together for certain finishes on their switch tops. This will make anodizing the switches possible. We will also be offering a 10% discount for the month of June to all Lat-g members. Keep an eye on our online store for a link tab to place your order. Credit cards will not be charged until product is ready and in hand to ship.

Thanks guys
Rodger
