I've just started to follow this thread........interesting stuff and lots of good ideas and fab work. It would have be benifical to have it running when I was putting my car together. Keep the posts going and keep up the good work everyone.

Peter.

Hello.

I saw you make a run last fall at Maxton; a very nice car!  Quite a feat going that fast and driving from Canada.  I used to live outside Buffalo and have had many good times in Canada.

John, you stated that you didn't want your car to be heavy in the nose. Joe Timney told me when I was building my car to have about 51% of the cars weight on the front wheels, works realy good for me.

Thanks for the compliment and .....very nice tube work! But...you are going to have to be a contortionist when Keith puts you through your exit excercise. It will be like exiting a Nascar race car! Hope you are young and athletic!

Peter,  I agree,,, John's car chassis, cage and suspension are very nice.... That X Brace in the door looks lighty small to get in and out of (well at least for me as I am 6ft tall and 375lbs,,)  I am drawing up several "swing out" door bar designs for my Stude.... I will side bars to Tech over 175 even with a good cage and door sill/rocker bars and full door net,, I need some door bars so, swing out is my only real option...

John, keep up the good work..

Peter are you coming back down in June ?

 John,
Looks good! It looks  like  entry/exit  should  be  do-able  with relative  ease. Are  you doing  a funny-car style cage around  the  drivers  seat? Is that close to your  final seat position?

Talk to you later,
Jerry
