 I don't really like the uprights but it will have to do. The next slot project will benefit tremendously from all of the crap I needed to learn on this on. |

This came off so good! Where do you race this? Patrick I will be racing it.....erm, TESTING it at Bullitt county speedway in louisville, Ky. As they have no formula for what I have made we are all going to sit down and make a new formula for the class. Hope to see you there sometime. Will |

Not only a great, sinister looking car, but a ground breaking car if you need to make a class for it!
Do you pop in a driver figure when you race?

I have had to fab up the entire plenum for this car because it is MUCH lower than any other in use at the time.

 The air openings for the sidepods have been shaved back to give the chassis a more 89 P feel to it. |

 You can see in these two images just how much lower the new plenum will be to facilitate the lower body work in the rear of the car.  |

 Starting to take a pretty shape. A little more clean up and we will have a completed power train. |

That is a great shot of the right sidepod area with the bodywork off. Those are not always easy to find.
Good work on the engine. Can't figure out why anyone would mold this one in yellow....

Jordan Yeah....the molding choices were schizophrenic. All models like this should be a light gray or flat white. Thanks for the kind words Jordan. I should have the powertrain done today or tomorrow. |
