 Hello all, Sorry for the delay in getting some snaps up but life gets busy sometimes. So we have here a small update for the 88/00 and it's progress. You can see the major focus is now on the ducting and cooling systems of the Lola. |

So how fast will this be able to go when completed. Someone should send this wip to Mario Andretti himself. I am sure he would be very impressed. Very nice work.

I was looking up the definition of PERFECT(adjective ˈpərfikt)in the dictionary today and to my amazement there was a picture of this build by it! WOW!

 A little touch up work and we will be golden. The next series will contain the finished result and I personally hope you are all as pleased with it as I have become. |

The trans linkage arm that travels the length of the car from the cockpit to the back of the transaxle appears to be way too big, any thoughts of changing from 1/16 aluminum tubing/rod to piano wire? Just saying.. Great work I really like the turned parts on the half-shafts, steering column and pop off valve, now those I would buy!! The half shaft pieces would work on so many cars Indy, F-1,IMSA etc.. Keep the up-dates coming on this Excellent build.. Thanks Chris
