Well,
As the season approaches,the snow continues to fall and the heating oil prices continue to rise the car is coming together nicely. Many of you know I had scare last month and almost had to sell it. But the problem was averted and now I'm back on track. Or so I think. Got some new photos of the dash fabrication and gauge mounting the seat is in and the suspension only needs two grade ten bolts to finish it up. So heres some photos. Next week motor install with Hewland transmission, and the new header fabrication. Attached image(s) |

Rich and Guy,
The regional race is this weekend April 17th it is only a one day affair due to the drivers school being on Saturday. I need one person to help with the car. It is new, so things like nut and bolt checks and leak checks when I come in and Pyrometer check the tires would be much appreciated. This weekend is just a shakedown, and to survive the regional. I am going to try and be competitive, but the overall objective is to learn the car and foil any problems before they foil me. April 30th and May1 is the National and I hope to be competitive and get some points there. That weekend will be spent tuning on Thursday, nut and bolting the car on Friday and checking over. Saturday will be prac/qualifying and then a Sunday race. If you can make it up for only one day, please let me know, the gate fee will be paid, and lunch served as long as you like the restaurant at the track. Please call me to indicate what date you can assist. It would be very helpful. This weekend there will be limited time, but maximum effort will be needed to get the car on the track safely. I do not plan on qualifying at qualifying pace as the engine will be new and the chassis will be the same,. but hope that during the race the times will come down as the event race happens.
