Default Car Is Pretty Much Complete
A few little things left...window net, alignment, suspension preloading/setup. Then it's to the track.

Got the car on the scales and got the suspension pre-loaded. Took some time and a couple phone calls to Madman. I want to thank Madman for all the help. The car weighed in at 3012 lbs (3173 lbs with me in the car) with all fluids and a full fuel cell. Distribution was 53% front and 47% rear. I was happy with the results considering a DART Big M iron block, 9" with nodular iron center, & 10 point cage. Now to just get it to the track.
