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.
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.
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
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.
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.
ron,
thanks for the photos. since i was stuck in vegas (trade show) and couldn't get to carlisle, i appreciate the opportuntity to see some of the best cars (replicas) in the world. very interesting suspension on the p4.

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!
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 ?
