Dave,
The upgrades look great. I am glad to hear about you working on Smack - I can't wait to see it - looks great so far.

I will not have my exhaust before Dyno Day. But there might be a loaner that will work to get it on the roller.

I paid a guy just this morning to work for me, soooo, looks like I get to make DD also. Pretty excited even if I'll only be a JAFO. Sounding like the place will be packed. Jeff-

I cut another carbon fiber peice to cover the spare tire with battery relocated to a mount in the center of the spare sticking thru the carbon fiber cover. Looks sweet. My new CSP shifter came today. I was feeling good until I read Dennis's post about his electric fire. I am deflated now. But I use his post as motivation to go to Summit and buy a 250 amp battery disconnect switch and a 5 lbs. fire bottle so I will have 2 fire extinguishers in the car. I will soon install an on board fire system like the one we put in Herbie X. The kit is about $400 but I think it will be money well spent. Non the less his post has me very sad. I know he loved that car.

Well I finished the firewall, fabbed the rear 1/4 windows with NACA duct inlets, installed the battery diconnect, switches to control relays for fuel pmp and ingnition system, finished the Batery relocate less the 4 hold-downs for the carbon fiber/honeycomb spare tire cover. I made a carbon fiber dash plate for the battery disconnect switch and a carbon fiber wire cover for the front side of the gauges. I still need to wire up the HyFire and make some stainless inlet screens for the NACA ducts and install the new CSP shifter. I hope my heads are done soon so I can finish the engine up.

Dave, I hate you.
The CF honeycomb looks killer.
