Rep Power: 3 | Pics test
I'm not much of a photog and I messed up and overwrote some of my pics from yesterday, but I've some I selected to post. I'll even see if I can attach multiples to a single posting. Here goes. | |

Rep Power: 3 | OK that worked
So, should I post as 1 big post, or break it up. I've got 26 more I've selected. Let the readers have the choice, single pics, duals, 5 at a time, all 26. I've got P4, P car, Ron McCalls car and others from the show. I'll wait for the "concensus". One question though, any thought to a rear sway bar on the RCR car ? Notice the MDA, ERAs , and SuperPerf all have the sway bar attaching to the lower rear A. | |

Rep Power: 10 | Any way you like, Bruce, just post 'em! Great photos. Can't wait to see the rest.
My sway bar is attached to the lower a-arm as well. It's a GTD.

Rep Power: 3 | P Car first
I've decided to post by car. P car first. Lost the better body shots, but it was just a mockup body. Got good ones of the chassis and engine mounting. Enjoy. Others to follow | |

Rep Power: 3 | Ron M's car.
I can't believe he did all this inside of 4 months. Folks the pictures don't do justice to the paint. But 600+ HP. Yikes. Oh and see if you recognize the last bundle of snakes, it was his drive for the day. | |

Rep Power: 3 | Super Perf and MDA
Figured I'd combine 2. MDA and Superformance . Lost more good shots of the MDA. Looks like a nice car. Psuedo monocoque with the panels on the frame. I talked awhile with the Superperf guy, he asked me my favorite. I told him the RCR cars. He was giving me the spiel about continuation of numbering, etc. | |

Rep Power: 3 | ERAs are next
There was an ERA outside, I'm probably repeating from the previous on one picture and there were 3 inside. Only have the good shots of the spyder. | |

Rep Power: 57  | Very nice photos fellows, I appreciate it. If you've got more please post them up. I really like that Essex Wire color scheme - in my opinion that is one that does not get done nearly enough. But, it is a relief to NOT see a bunch of Gulf GT40s there as one might expect at a show! Nice cars all around! | |

Rep Power: 3 | RCR for delivery
One last batch. An RCR waiting for a home. Notice the "new" front tub of aluminum, not the steel frame, and the rear aluminum plate in place of the rear frame. Notice also, the support bars going from the rear suspension points and supporting that rear "tub". Perhaps that will act as a natural rear diffuser ? | |
