And it even has a use!

Nice coloured cobra.....but then I am biased

Oh and the welds ain't bad either - lol

Makes me think I too should go back to weld school for TIG and MIG exposure.

Did that recently at 200kph at Sandown without damaging anything mate.

But then slicks do give you so much more grip - in the dry!

Besides I didn't feel like donating the first $3K into race car repairs anyway as the fine print notes.

But back to welding I've only ever been taught arc and that was 300 years ago so I've forgotten more than I probably learnt.

But the ability to weld SS and Ali is an attractant.
