The show was interesting. Unfortunately heavy rain was in the forecast for all 3 days. It held mostly off but, I'm sure that it kept some people away.

I had a steady stream of people at the car. Those that knew of the Cheetah recognized it as a Cheetah. I only heard positive comments. Most seemed to love the look.

I gave away about 90 cards to people that seemed to me had a genuine interest. I didn't take any orders at the show. I think there might be a few potential customers from what I handed out.

My son and I are starting to build a new, better jig tomorrow. Then we will build a couple of frames and mount the bodies. I'll have 2 kits available soon.

I think that not having doors will limit the number of potential customers.

I had installed new springs on the car just before going to the show. I set them by the frame height. Yesterday I scaled the car. It has 15 gallons in the tank. LF=498lbs, RF=499lbs, LR=486lbs, RR=483lbs. Total=1967lbs. Cross=50.0%, Rear=49.3. With me in the car the rear goes to 52%
