Very neat, nice write up.

This thing sure has progressed/improved hasn’t it, I guess thats the way race cars go, very cool car.

Neat

Nice work.

That’s the 4 brakes done.  Its like Antarctica in Adelaide today!  Had to take one front side off as a pair as I just couldn’t break the drum from the hub, then used my press and got them apart, they had lightly rusted together.

The brakes, pads etc actually look good. So have cleaned them all up with a rotary wire brush and hit then with some b…[Read more]

lol thats pretty funny

Yea its a lot of fun, lots of fiddly jobs to do, but slow and steady wins the race!

Lol, you two keep your man crushes to yourselves.

Sorry mate, you can’t, I have my name in that que….

Well, we have a number in mind, but that is secret mens business 

Nice work mate, neat wiring pays off in spades as soon as you strike a gremlin and have to chase it through.

Do they really work, have you done a back to back dB test by any chance?

And that is what we all want

If anyone is doing this sort of stuff and has a drawing or sketch, I am always happy to model it up in 3D CAD so someone can get it NC machined if they want.   Most likely do that for nicks, but could also for a small cost 3D print a prototype through Build Ninja if ya wanted.  Just throwing it out there.

Not surprised freaked me out seeing it on the vid!  Looks like so much fun!

Not surpised freaked me out seeing it on the vid!  Looks like so much fun!

Nice vid, love the half lose :)  Did the guy driving across in front of you late in the run look as scary in car as it did on the vid, would have put me off?
