Welcome

Happy Halloween from Battle Creek, Michigan!

As it turns out it was a good move on our part scrapping our plans to race at Logansport last weekend, as the show rained out.  We have put the outdoor car away for the winter, sent our backup motor in to get rebuilt, and are now putting our efforts toward getting the indoor car ready for Fort Wayne.

The indoor car is progressing very well, considering all we are doing to it.  It is undergoing a major transition, and is currently down at Concept Chassis.  Rodney is adding some updates to the chassis, for safety concerns, and moving some tubing around in the cockpit area.  This should give me more room, hence better comfort.  Now, if I could just get my sofa in there…

Hopefully the chassis will be done in a couple of weeks.  When we get it back, I will have to assemble the car once again so that I can get some other items fabricated for it, and make sure everything fits, then take it back apart.  The chassis will then go to powdercoat, and the body panels to paint.  Only then can we begin final assembly.  I keep thinking I’ve got lots of time to get this all done, but with the October page coming off the calendar tomorrow, the time is quickly growing close.  I will try to post some photos when we get the car somewhat close one piece.

Until next time…
