Progress Continues
A good friend of mine said that I did not do a good job of updating my blog. I was surprised to know that someone was reading my blog.
I am continuing to track ahead as mentioned below. The motor is out and in Greenville, SC. The dual brake master cylinders are in with the balance bar attached and the brake lines re-plumbed and the dropped swivel axle assemblies are installed.
Sam Neave at LNA Enterprises (http://home.earthlink.net/~samneavelna/) is going to augment my roll bar to SCCA National Specifications. The added door bars and front hoop will give me added confidence. For years people raced with either no bar, or only a main hoop like I had, but there were times when I hung it out there and thought, if I lose it, am I safe and secure in this car. This new bar will resolve those concerns.
Ron Davis is building my aluminum racing radiator as I type this, because my original radiator which I said was being re-cored was rotten throughout.
This Monday (December 31, 2007) the car heads to the painter for a fresh coat of black, before receiving its sponsor and number decals.
In another post, I will officially announce my sponsor for ‘08, but I will tease you a bit now by giving you their Web address – http://www.thirdwavedigital.com/.
Santa mom and dad gave me a new sebring front valence for the car and I finished its installation today. Here are some pics that show it off, as well as what my car looks like prior to the paint shop. Just a couple of months ago it was successfully navigating the race track – now it is just a rolling tub – what have I done? J
