Thinking you know everything about every situation doesn't make it so!

There is always a lot of info that you just don't know about which allows you to make assumptions on these situations.

I can read the rules, and see when something is clearly being distorted.

Seems like several others see it the same way.

I am not making assumptions. I am reading the rules, with no other influences.

And that goes for any of the "situations".

Really it isn't the fault of the competitors, they push for what they want, what will give them the competitive advantage. The RC should keep this in control, and not continue on with the cycle of "ok we will allow this" and then realizing it was a mistake and saying "never mind we are pulling it".

Has every one knows when you bend metal in 2 different direction you weaken the metal.

LOL Both front shock towers are reinforced the exact same way. Must have been a hell of a crash.

If you do it on one side, you don't want the other side to be jealous.

Cage build by AWR

Did you sand blast the tubing prior to welding?

Are you a very tall driver? I never understood why so many cage builders offset the tubing behind the driver's seat then just to install a much longer seat stiffener.

Do you have any pics of the fuel cell from the top because the supports look pretty weak from below?

So you are only supporting with a few tiny bolts on each side through the floor?

No I decided to use sheet metal screws !!!!

As I said earlier this is an early pic, there is an other 40 hr of works that when in. The cell is setting on a square frame.
The car will be back on monday from the body shop will take more pics.

Benny a tall driver? instead of offsetting the tubing behind the driver's seat towards the rear as they did, maybe they should've offset it towards the front....about 18".
LOL!
