To say I am blown away is an understatement. The chassis looks incredible and the video was really cool to watch. I plan to watch it again when I get to the office.

As for the beer hold off a little longer as it may come out of you fairly quickly. Make sure you have a couple months with a solid stomach as you don’t want to end up dehydrating yourself.


ps I am glad your still alive which i already new as I follow you on facebook.

I'm back home now for almost 3 weeks and feeling much better. I'm getting my strength back and dealing with some of the side effects. The worst was picking up a fungal infection in my lungs while my immune system was totally down. That'll take months to get rid of and of course, months of meds.



Enough about that! I guess I never posted a link to a walk around video of the mostly completed new chassis.

I did get to one event in last year to see how the new setup worked. Took the car down to Charlotte, NC for Good Guys and also hit up the DSE open house. So about the chassis. Whoa. Mega change in the way it drives! I went from having no rear grip to now having too much. Had to make some big adjustments from the "middle" position that I had it in. By the end of 7 runs, and getting faster each run, it was getting much easier to drive.



There's a few things I want to change, but overall I'm very satisfied with it. Here's a few pics of it together and on the ground.
