Default Bugger!!!!!!

The cage is now complete, ready for the next step of a "pre tech" inspection. This is to verify the materials used are correct and that all welding looks ok.

Huge problem

I drive with the seat back and I am in a more reclined postion, and I did all the fitting at the shop to make sure I fit. Karen drives closer to the wheel and in a much more upright position, see doesn't fit!!!!! Her head is to close to the top bar.

This could be a good thing, but after last nights discussion I need to get it sorted. I have some pics of how it looks and I hope you can see how I have used the door skin. I still have lots of work to do like hinging the doors etc.

I have taken it out as we have a club race day at oran park on the weekend and there is no way I could have it ready for that.

The suprising thing is the weight, about 25kgs.













I will post some more pics next week, with me in it , the doors hung and the race seat installed.
