Glad to see someone getting ready to play. This looks like a classy build. It's going to look better in my mirror.

Remember objects in there mirror may be faster than they appear.

What happened to the 7 s?

I figured were going to skip the 8 s and just start in the 7 s...

Default Fuel Pump and Roll Cage Updates
The Waterman mechanical fuel pump arrived. Top quality. We will be ordering the cable when we determine the final length.

Matt from MS Fabricators is doing a great job on the cage. 75% of the bars are complete. We will be removing the entire cage when done and sending out for paint.

Tnx.

The chassis shop is doing a great job. He says he will drop the entire cage out of the car so the welding can be completed. This makes painting the cage much easier.

How do you remove the torque tube if needed with the cage underneath it?

Awesome build.

Make sure you have this figured out... it was fun for us for sure. We had to um... clearance some stuff to get it back in ....

Looking good, can't wait to see what you do with this thing.

You know I was wondering why the chassis shop included one of these Dewalts in the pricing. LOL

Since this car is not ready I am still in the 99.9% of the people to know what it's like. I actually can't wait. I know I will be stocking up on some depends for the first couple of passes....
