Have you discussed the car with a tech inspector yet?


Thanks!

We have the most current rulebook, 2022. We have found some things that have changed from back in the 90s, LOL! Anyway, the plan is to go out to El-Mirage to find some old friends & talk with the tech guys. When we get the car further along & back to a rolling chassis. We will haul it out there for tech consultation.

The biggest problem we found is the windshield is laid back a good deal from stock. Apparently, this was allowed when Speedo started building the car. We will have to re-adjust it to meet the factory angle. We have found a couple other minor rules changes that we have to take care of.

That is a good plan, I know a few of the tech inspectors so if you need a contact let me know.

Holidays got me behind on ordering material & parts. Made some headway with the motor parts yesterday & bought the Dzus fasteners for the belly pan. I still need to get the aluminum ordered for the pan.

Hope to get the belly pan done in Feb. or Mar. We'll see how that goes; I've never done this before.
