Damnit B! Stop using my name when referencing other people with the same name! It's confusing!

Don't worry I'm in the same boat as you, though I guess this means you can have time for our "special" project

Better that you stayed home then drive all those hours on no sleep only to be stuck at the lodge and not enjoying the drive. Look forward to seeing it soon though! Get some pics up when you can, but get some sleep first!

got some great footage for you to check out, plus some crazy stories of things that happened, plus i still need to swing by to get some work done

AND..now that i think about it...i owe you guys some parts...perhaps when i go to get my work done i can sucker someone into driving a big truck to drop it all off (cough* cough* my dad or mom cough* cough*) and we still need to talk of an actual deal, perhaps through pms lol

Hey Brian the rotary gods are pissed at you and since you spent half of the winter working on a V-8 powered 7 therefore there is no way they could allow you to make the deadline on your car. When are you going to Daves for tuning/torturing?

So what's the news on the wheel speed stuff. Sorry I fell off the radar for a couple weeks, I got killed with school and the formula car. If you still need me to do anything else, let me know.

pppppfttttt haahahaahahahaahaha ::lol2:

Yeah, something like that. Worked kicked up, new jobs are coming in and my time is getting more and more scarce.... I'm gonna rock the hell outta this weekend, wake up saturday, work till sunday night. Sadly it won't all be on the car. i took a peak tonight and found, I hope, the fuel leak, I know what's going on with the wiring for the most part so squaring that away won't be all that bad, I'm hoping to have her running by the end of the weekend. We'll see.

As for Dave's, dunno, soon though. It's going to be a two part event though. One day tuning, then back for the coil torture testing. You wanna head up? What days work better for you? In the summer believe it or not, weekdays work better for me but I could arrange something on the weekend if ya wanna join

We're not talking about that j/k... I got the fronts worked out. Two changes to the .DXF files and it'll work flawlessly. One change being to make it out of 5/16" not 1/4" Thanks again for all your help with that.

As for the rear, welllllllllllll, I have two solutions for that. One involves two seperate peice bolted together, the other is a plate with pressed in fingers. I need to make one work, grab some pics, and get back intouch with the waterjetter.

The fronts are ready to rock and roll.... want me to get a set out to you?

No need to get them yet. Lets get a finalized design and finished product before I receive anything.

No worries. Fronts are done, it's just the rears. Need to decide if two plates bolted together is the way to go or one plate cut with holes every 15* to press in a roll pin is the way to go.

I'll update with some pics when I find my camera.

Cool Dave, glad to hear it! I can't wait to toss myself around in the FC with those seats. I may have to figure out how to make the shoulder harnesses work with them for some of the auto-x's and track days...... especially if I head down to Zoomfest.

Gimme a shout whenever and we'll get it all sorted out
