Antelope Canyon! I'm glad you got to see it.

Wall thickness? Have you calculated the total chassis weight?

That's a pretty narrow track, :rolleyes:

Race cars typically avoid having anything flammable in the cockpit.

In the late '80s I bought the original show car built by kit car manufacturer Manta Cars and restored it. The car was street legal and I drove it to work, to car shows, etc. The last time it ran was in 1995 when I took my then- fiance for a ride through Tucson. It was parked until this year-- a...

I bought the pump from a reputable dealer. Yes, the pump is mounted vertically.

Has anyone experienced early failure with a Facet Gold Flo fuel pump? Mine is making a noise like a death rattle but it has only less that an hour running time. I can't see the model number.

Being an unfamiliar black car, the comparison to the Batmobile is inevitable. :p

The quotation marks were because it was quoting from your post. I was not aware of the Deutsch AS series connectors. I have only used their aerospace/MIL connectors in the past. In my opinion, Deutsch makes the best connector in the industry. BTW, that wire marker color code is the same as for...

"Worth" is not always judged by $, it can be valuable for the pride & satisfaction of having actually done it.

Nice coping, too.

After the experience of removing a fuel cell bladder from a McLaren M8C back in the Can- Am days, I am convinced that it was a job for a gynecologist.

Back in the mod 1960s I jumped (with both feet!) into building a car. A man in Rockville, MD, John Sabel. was offering copies of his mid-engine race car fiberglass body, the Sabel Mk III, for a decent price do I drove over to north of DC to visit John at his shop. His design was very attractive...

Frankly, I would not run knock- off hubs these days. They are obsolete for good reasons. 1. They are not secure. 2, The hub assembly is heavy, 3. The stresses on the wheel are high. 3. They are prone to seize. 4. They offer no advantage in speed of mount/dismount. Of course those who are...
