Really like the progress Pat. Got the racing schedule planned for next season ?

Planing to race the BOR series in Utah. First race should be early May if the schedule is the same as last years.

Fit and burned in a few panel tabs yesterday. 

Couple more panels templated also. 

We will build it if it comes.

Made good progress over the weekend on this.

Templated, fabed, and welded in the front bash guard for the rear skid plate. 3/16” steel plate to “absorb” the initial impact. 

Rear skid plate’s templated. 

Front beam adjusted skid also. 

Kill switch mounted between the seats within easy reach of driver & co-driver

We will build it if it comes.

Put some time in on this one yesterday.

Fit and burned in a cover panel where the pass grab handle shaft pokes through the dash bottom side. 

Trimmed up some 3/16” alum plate for the pushrod tube skids. 

Same for the bottom adjuster skid on the beam. Top plate is a lot thinner .040 alum.

More panel work this morning. 

We will build it if it comes.

Managed to get all of the front end splash panels fabed & fit yesterday. Just the skids left to go when material arrives.

Did some thinking about dash layout also. 

We will build it if it comes.
