OK, Folks ....... the "beast" is built. The engine is at the tuners getting rested and charged up. The big race will start at 0730 Monday morning.
Note the racetrack has a nice straight away, a 90 degree curve is behind me to my left with more straight away.
As you can see in the close up, this machine has several noteworthy features:
* its a roadster, with a soft top (which also acts as a roll bar)
* the front (drive) axle can be locked or unlocked ..... blocking power from the engine (freewheeling .... eg Georgia overdrive)
* the rack & pinion steering can be done by the driver or co-pilot
* the seat is made by Recaro and has a 5 point hitch
* dash mounted tray for a bottle and snacks
* handy tray for co-pilot's water, snacks, cell phone
* ample trunk space for spare diapers, burp clothes, and general clean up materials in case of a blow out from either end
* duel, positive lock rear axle (parking brakes or for drifting)
* HD skid plate for off road protection
* the co-pilot's handle and other parts can be easily removed for it to convert to trike mode
time for pa-pa's nap ...... I've had a busy morning .....
