The last time the car moved under its own power was September 22, 2010 ("The long strange trip") and on February 17, 2013, it moved itself back out - only took me about 2.5 years!


In addition to a few more pics have some boring "car rolling down the street" videos linked from http://www.rhoadescamaro.com/build

Killer.... Jongbloed wheels, correct?

Yep, Jongbloed, the 214 Aero style.

Jason, I really appreciate all of the information you have gathered and distributed during this build. I am really looking forward to your thoughts on the spring rates you have chosen once you get some seat time.

Here's a writeup of its first race weekend:

Also have an in-car video for download, it is somewhat large though (~180MB):

A long way from where it needs to be handling-wise, but now the fun can really begin!

Thanks for the update Jason! Love following your build and website.

If I can throw my thinking cap on with you.

On the El Toro runs, it looks like you could be locking up the rear tires under braking? To me, it looks like that is really what's unsettling the car on turn in and keeping you so busy. In contrast, mid-corner to corner out, the car looks pretty manageable.

You're obviously a good driver, the car just looks really skittish right now but I'm sure you'll get it sorted soon enough.
