OK mang…. it’s go time on the class 11 rig…  I want to put this cool ass Oval all back together and Ready To Race!  Represent KCW again!!  So I need to get the body back looking good.. I know that’s important, especially for this race.  I am not going to even look into the big boy shocks.  My car is designed around my little shocks… and I am keeping them.  I don’t think my shocks have been my limiting factor yet… Mostly tires if you ask me… and we have a FRESH set of yokohama’s that are RTR!!!  and I heard yokohama might be extra invested and interested in class 11 this year in Crandon…. 😎 😎 😎 SHHHHHH 😎 😎 😎  If these y720’s aren’t the ticket… I bet Yokohama or Continental will have something on hand there… there were loads of tire machines out there 😎 😎 😎

 

Been a wild ride, but it got me here 😎

Hell yeah!  getting my shit box back together so I can go play with the big boys.. 😎  I got a front fender back on, and lip trimmed and wire welded all the way around… Makes the fender more stout and no tire cutters… 😎  I should probably do the rears also… darn it!!

Glad your watching along John… You would sure enjoy Crandon!!!

Well I got a fresh door on the drivers side!!!!!  She fits damn nice!!   Also got muy 1/4 welded up!!   YEAH!!!!

Pat painted my axle tubes for me.. Thanks… 😎  Trans assembly coming up soon!!!  This go around I have a FRESH awesome LEGAL trans… 😎  I went with a spool this time..   I have gotten up on one rear tire a few times now… and with the stock diff… Your tire off the ground just spins… but with a spool…. I can drive right through it..    Hope it helps some for forward motion!!!!!!

Time to start dealing with rear fenders!!!  then the apron and engine bay!!!!

I still have about 30 days… No problem….  I got this… 😎

I had a fuchin great weekend on the 1131 car!!!!!  I think I finally have all the carnage from King Of the Hammers about erased!!!!  and things have actually started moving in a forward direction!!!

Parts are off that need to visit the paint booth…    I’m questioning how much paint work and touch up to do on the body now… 8-)???
