A lot got done today, from the left rear suspension (we yanked the old one, once it decided it wanted to leave) by the simple process of:
1. Remove muffler
2. Remove a bunch of other bolts
3. There are more bolts apparently
4. Suspension parts are really heavy, when you put them back in the car, have a [...]
We’ll be working on the car in Patterson this weekend. If all goes well, the tires may turn under their own power,,, or not.
I leave you with this moment of Zen from Thunderhill last year.
Three Fifths’ of Scuderia Punk Rock Chef showed up last night to Go Kart Racer in Burlingame last night for a sustained pummeling.
We with our silly bodies made of flesh, stuffed in fiberglass skull bubbles, and view ports made of polycarbonate , while we sheathed ourselves in Nomex, Nylon, and leather, ready for 50 minutes [...]

First of all,, Thanks Murilee!!

So here’s my first attempt at a super simple helmet design (I can do it all with decals,, cause I’m lazy!)
Inspiration: Red bull drivers helmet, Ferrari shield rear sticker, Rebel alliance/star wars. I’m a geek, what are you gonna do?
How about posting yours now?
