Let the conversion begin!
I like your new "shifter" beer bottle design.

More like, (Dave's voice) "Hey Rich, while we're changing out the tranny and modding the clutch, why don't we tear out the interior, dash, do some wiring, put some of that noise/heat sticky stuff in cause you know how comfy I like to be at the track and, oh yeah got any spare aluminum laying around you could trim up for those X brace thingys near the back seats? I'm off to get some beer and I'll be back in the morning. Think you'll have it done?"



(just teasing Bro!)

Rich only drinks Bud Light... if it were me, it'd be a nice Belgian or hoppier ale.

Ya know, you'd normally be sorta right on that, but in this case I actually did most of the "demo" myself... I mean, it's a lot easier to knock something down than build it up right?

A good way to learn how something gets installed or goes together is to take it apart I hear. We'll see when it's time to put it back in... or leave it out in this case as part of our "race weight" strategic plan.

Tell me about it... flavored water..... but I don't think Rich, or anyone, would be very productive after 15 of the beers I like to drink.

Default update

We made some progress on the various projects to get ready for Buttonwillow next month. I wish I could just leave the shift rods exposed.
