Very nice Aaron!

Which side was machined first, bottom? or Top?

Thank you.

Joe, I did the inside first. This way, I was able to use a standard vise to clamp on the outside of the stock. I tapped the perimeter holes to #10-32 threads. Then for the second side, I took some scrap pieces and machined in the bolt pattern and then used bolts to hold it down. The bolts were just under the finished flange after it was fully machined. Eventually, I will clearance drill out the threads as the clamp ring (not made yet) has the threads in it. I have a set of ARP stainless bolts to finish it out.

Too cool. You and your trick billet bits.

Not as good as the other race dezert build thread but its still got some amazing photos. I picked up a few jigging ideas for my frames like this one.

I was on the salt when they broke the last record with Thrust SSC. Reports and pictures were rolling in from Black Rock and everyone was buzzing....pretty cool to be a part of! Let's see if they can keep this one on the ground!
Check out the pressure wave in front of Thrust....

This was taken a day or two before Andy Green set the record. Taken from one of two Ultralights they brought with them from the UK. I was lucky enough to buy a copy from the pilot and get Andy to autograph it.

Here's my page on it. The page is old and photos small because it was made for dial up downloading in those days. http://www.pozziracing.com/land_speedracing.htm
