    Re: New Race Car

    Well the off season has arrived and there is much to do after this little issue.






    Both cars are a mess but we started in on the old mans first.


    Got the Magnesium Bellhousing repaired first not nearly as bad as the previous repairs.


    Was lining up a new clutch for the car and going to fix up the body work and diffuser.




    But before we got to far we sold it to a guy we race with out in BC so it is packed up and on it's way out tomorrow.

    We have since located one of the sister cars to mine chassis 006 out in New York and hopefully before the end of the month we will have it in the garage.

      Re: New Race Car

      So now with the old mans car out of the way time to start into the Mygale.

      Pulling off a slightly damaged left rear corner. (Don't think i can save the rotor)


      Some damage to the inside tripod area looks like it shaved out some of the magnesium upright.


      Pretty sure that bracket is done.


      and my worst nightmare came true the upright is bent where the suspension bracket mounts to it. (Plus a stress fracture)


      Pulled the steering rack out the other day and time to send it's dimensions to the UK to have another made.

        Could be an interesting yard sale come summer.

                Not really I needed a new car with the A4 just about dead but that is now on the back burner. The upright alone is about $1k the bearing inside is almost $500 somebody shoot me.
