HAHA.....I know, right? Boys suddenly got the jones to do some karting....they've been bugging me all week so I finally got the opportunity to take them. Fun as usual........Anthony normally beats Nicks lap times but Nick beat him all 3 sessions this time. Anthony was bent out of shape :lol:

I'm sure GW appreciates the less technical term plywood but I'd call it OSB.:lmao:

Congrats on the certs:thumbsup:

:cheers:

Thanks Rob. Still have one big one to go and I have to be accepted through the State of California in the application process in order to take the exam but I should be good.

Awesome job on picking up the difference between ply and OSB. Not sure many would had known what I was talking about if I said OSB. :thumbsup:

Had to get it done before taking my boys to the go kart place.

OH, didn't know you owned a hammer.. I would of thought you hired a Lic contractor :gitrdun:

Soon........dropping car off at Vinces shop this weekend. Mostly installing safety stuff but will also finally do something with the dash. I dont like the '69 Camaro dash pads so I tried one from a Nova and didn't like that look either so we are going to do a custom dash. :superhack:

I'll have some pics up hopefully by Sunday night.

Sorry for the lack of updates but we were able to get the track car running and off the rack so now its time.

Tear down today. Shooting for an April 19th completion date. Track day is on May 3rd.

I have been working on the fuel cell cage for a few days so now its time to set it in.
After gutting the cell box we started on the 1x1 cage surround. Center drop to start.

Hopefully you're talking about the car and not dropping subtle hints for the driver!

Nice work so far.
