Those are GREAT build thread photos PJ.  Thank you for posting!
I'm a veteran racer & race car designer committed to staying on the leading edge of racing technology, for one reason, to win. Everything else is BS. I'm only semi-retired because I still love helping build bad ass race cars.

While engineering, geometry, trigonometry, physics & more affect everything in race cars, I do my best to make the complicated easier to understand. One of my racing friends said, "Ron is a race car designer that did not go to engineering school, so he speaks car guy."

Thanks for the kind words. When you get the car ready to scale ... or on the scales ... reach out & let's discuss what we're seeing & what you want.
