I remember his car. It used to be Royal Blue in color. He was selling it
a very reasonable price during the market downturn if I recall.

I saw this racer at Auto Club Spdwy last year doing skid pad ride-a-long with local PD. It had a 'Keytar' in the passenger seat (yes, you read that right) lol.

I see a lot of booger welds and lots of half baked rigging going on in there...

I get that race cars are sometimes cobbled together out of necessity, but those quick on track fixes should be fixed correctly once she gets home and before the next race.

Racers beware!

your eyes must be better than mine. I don't see any bad welds; maybe a bit of weld spatter. function > form

I was wondering about the Porsche valve covers also. old 928 engine?
