Not really...things went on the back burner. Unfortunately having to deal with family issues (separation, probable divorce) . No bueno.
Still planning to have the car ready by the end of the year, but everything else has slowed it waaaaay down

Wish I could say I didn't know what that was like, but I understand real life getting priority. Hope you get things sorted and are good for next season.

Cheers,

Had been praying for reconciliation here but not looking like it.

Original plans were to have the car ready by my 50th, but since that appears to be only a week after the divorce should be final, I dont see that happening either.

Once things are final, I will be putting plans back into motion to get the car done for next season, as long as finances are ok.

Good luck with everything Curt, and I look forward to racing with you in the middle of next season when I get back from my deployment.

Well, I decided that working on the car could be good therapy, so I am going to get back into it.

I found another deal and ended up getting a NIB set of Konis for $400, so I can take those off the list.

Next is to get back into the cockpit and finish prepping that, then fabbing the seat mount and dash.
I plan to drop the transaxle to put the short 5th version in and pull the motor and get it up on the stand.

Next purchases will likely be the rest of the suspension stuff and the cage.
