We work for almost nothing to do this and what we make is priceless.  Better than anything one can buy.

I have been busy with the new venture and haven't been on here in a while, but progress has been going on.  Woody has done a magicians job of getting the aero nailed down  and Kevin has been busy making parts. The light at the end of the tunnel is starting to get bright.  Tony

Woody, The flow around santa looks almost like the cockpit of the roadster.  :-o  Maybe some canards on Rudolf and a Gurney lip on the back might help.  :cheers:   Tony

Has this project been finished, or still in progress

Considering the last post for this build has been over 10 years ago it looks like this project is dead.
