Re: USA GTD Build

Yes Malcolm, that's why your car has been wobbly, all the good bits are at my house.....

Our left hand drive chassis was set up for center shift and we decided to convert it over to left hand shift. Mostly because with me in the car, there would not be any room for a center shift. Through Roy Smart, a very good friend, I was able to secure a rod shift set up and the appropriate pieces to modify the frame. Basically what we had to do was to create a kink in the frame as right hand GTD's have and utilize a shifter set up to work on the opposite of typical side. Here you can see some of the frame mods that had to be done.
