What did you end up going on BS?

The WidowMaker 08-21-2010 09:12 AM

4.25 bs, but im running a 1.5" pad for the z06 brakes which pushes the spokes out a little more.

well i got back from vegas and im still alive..... and married. we went to the rehab pool on sunday and some guy actually died while we were in the pool. we didnt find out until the next day, but another group of medic firefighters (one was a friend of my buddy) actually tried to help and were told to leave. one actually got thrown out because he was irate that nobody was performing cpr on this kid. pretty friggin crazy and there will be a HUGE lawsuit to come.

i took today off from the car, but tomorrow is day 11 of what is now 12 prep days. im going to take the frame down to the blasters on monday morning and try to have it in epoxy sometime in the afternoon. if all goes well i should have it all finished in paint by a week from saturday. stay tuned!!!

so i borrowed a buddys trailer and when i get off tomorrow morning the frame is going to the blasters!!!!!!! i plan to put a couple coats of epoxy on it tomorrow night. i work tuesday and then there will be a 3 day thrash to get it all done. the only part that wont get painted with the others is the rear housing. i figure i'll leave that for maybe saturday or sunday since theres a lot of prep left on it and theres still 33 suspension parts to paint on friday.

pics of primer tomorrow night!!!

i just hope the wind and paint cooperates...........
