If it isn't too late you should adopt a set of those stripes. They might make you faster, Ron.
Wait til I unveil the 6" cowl at the next event...

Ron will likely be as slow as his build.
While Rich and I were downing the beers, I think you sabotaged my coil at RTTC.

Not too much or too exciting, but a little progress. Most of the time has been spent on little assembly tweaks here and there, final blocking and getting ready for the paint booth…

Couple of earlier/missing mock up pics






Clearanced the inner fenders




Drain plug cut/weld install and seam sealer where possible…

We decided to shoot the engine bay first…








And masked off a clean line at the bottom of the firewall for UPol. We reduced the UPol 15% to get a little smoother finish










We’re at the point where the body gets final checks for highs/lows and into the paint booth in a few days. I cannot wait…
