Goodbye Kansas

I have not installed the tach. I boned the steering column slot and need a small repair. Still have to cut the access panel for the electrical. There is room for brake bias adjuster and fire suppression actuator next to the bat disconnect.

Will paint it satin black and possibly texture if we can come up with something suitable. I kept my street dash complete with gages and wiring. It occurred to me there is no reason to cover this one since I still have a beautiful street dash that can easily be re-installed. This one is for the track. I did paint the back white - what a great idea - it is amazing how well that works.

The 2 gages installed are water temp and oil pressure - they are very easily viewable thru a 13' Momo.

We pulled the FIA off the rack so we could bolt some aero on the trainer. It worked very well. I was able to hold my foot to the floor thru turn 9 at PIR. This is an off camber corner and the thing wants to drive right off the road. The splitter seems to have been enough to get me thru though it is now apparent the shocks are under damped for that kind of speed.



Oh come on - it says COBRA right on the rear bumper.





I was still able to move ahead on the FIA. We got the steering welded up so it is much easier to move around.

I got the dash back this morning. The shop that painted it was amused by the white paint. They just finished a Tiger and the the techs comment was " I wish I would have known about that, we would have finished the Tiger that way".

Thanks Brent -

I'm working on it - I have a ways to go. I poured oil in it and we spin it with a wrench periodically.

While you are here, what do you want me to do with the lash?
