Not to mention the fact you need the trunk space to haul stuff for One Lap, correct?

Amazing car.

Bring it down to SoCal and we will track test it and do a full photoshoot/story..

Deal?


Would be interesting to see how she does in the skidpad, cones and braking...

You got it Steve. Our intention is to shake it down in that general neighborhood later in the summer - hopefully you will have Penny perfected by then and you can lead us in the right direction.

Is that a challenge???

Let me know when you want to come down here and we will book the track area we use and set up the photoshoot.

It wasn't intended as such (I think I've got my hands full with Dave and FUeL here at home as is) but I would definately be fun...

I was really hoping to steal your notes on the 3-link so you can save me three sets of springs and an excedrin headache.

We'll stay in touch and as plans come together we'll definately set things up. Besides, I have some stuff to send your way in the next week or two anyway (Mr. McBride's time permitting).

You guys are doing an outstanding job on this car. After reading the entire build over the last hour or so I have one question/request. Do you have any more pics or info on the firewall forward bracing that extends to the front of the subframe? What I am interested in is the attachment point between the two. It looks like it is a socket type fit for 1pc strengh in a 2pc set up. Did you make those or are they available from ??

Thanks for your time to answer everyones questions as well as document this al for us.
