    Default Another Car is Born - Part 3

    I'll try to get some photos posted tonight, but wanted to add to the list of new FST's to be hitting the track this summer. I am assembling Evolution chassis # 211 and trying like hell to make Blackhawk in just 12 days from now.

    Took longer than I thought. Here are a couple of shots of chassis 211. Got a little more complete this evening and should have it on the ground this weekend.






    More photos soon

    Got a whole lot further along, but not enough to make BFR this coming weekend

    Still going to work towards being there, but I know my limitations. Here is a couple of photos from todays efforts:

    Bob,

    I think it is just going to be too tight to make it with the new car. I will be there for the Friday test and the whole weekend.

    I'll still finish the new car and will need to take it out for a test..... Maybe the Milwaukee Mile?

    your car is looking so good i am feeling those teenage temptations of putting one together even if just to sit behind the wheel in the garage and go vroom vroom

    Provamo,

    Thanks for the kind words, helps to motivate. Rolled it out and took another pic. Got to keep making progress.

    Got side tracked on the assembly a touch, but finished the car this weekend thanks to Carl Middelegge and Chris Herzog. Campbell Evolution chassis # 211 will be at Nelson Ledges this coming weekend for its maden voyage. This shot was from Saturday morning. The car looked alot more finished Saturday night.





    Hope to give it a good showing, but I have a feeling it will be a weekend with some tough competition.
