Posted this over in the Paddock, but more of you know me over here....
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=206431 So we spent all winter fitting up a new decklid, wing, splitter, lightweight fiberglass roof, etc only to break a Carillo rod on the third lap out at the Roebling Road PCA race. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) No idea what happened, still working on that.... But here's a picture of Papa with his new clothes. They still need to be painted, no the exhaust is not for him (its from the M3 off to the right)...oh, and the engine is not in the car in this picture....yes, that's how stiffly sprung it is...  |
