I was down at Jerry Woods Enterprises today looking at my race car. The engine mock up is done and I reviewed budget for things I want. Moving slowly but things are moving. I even looked at the power steering unit that Rich Walton of Smart Racing hopes to use in our car. We will be a test mule. He's hoping to market it to others as a lower cost alternative to the full blown $3500 rack they normally use.

I'm all for lower cost.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) but I told Rich that my wife's only request through the car build was for power steering, so something will have to work (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif)

Here's a few picks of the car...after Rich gets done with more mock ups it comes all apart again and goes back to Brad and Scott for chassis tweaking, suspension set up and final paint, then back to Rich for the final engine / tranny placement.

Here's shots of the car....I've got $25K in cash into it...and I'll be putting out alot more over the next 3 to 4 months to finish it.

I keep telling myself it's going to be worth it.... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mueba.gif)

Here's the car...
