3 days till competition!!!!

So much to do and so little time!!! When hasn’t it been that way though this year with the car?? lol. So today the car has been sent off to be painted so we’ll get it back in time to put it together and load it up on the trailer to head out. This weekend we got the car running so we could drive and try a little bit of testing. Hopefully our lack of testing won’t come back to haunt us at competition.

Right now everyone in the shop is in work mode with getting spare parts made for the car and starting to load the trailer. Hopefully we won’t forget anything when we head to Auburn on Thursday!!!

So looking at the list, there’s a few more things that need to be done such as mounting things on the car and getting our decals onto the side panels. We finish the engine cover and we should get that on the car once we get the car back. It’s just going to be a very busy 3 days ahead of us. Here are some pictures since I haven’t written in a while. Hopefully I’ll update this everyday while we’re at competition to let you know how we’re doing and put pictures up. The car’s come a long way so enjoy!

    Good luck guys!! The car looks good! I like the simplicity of the frame, it gets the job done and reduces weight.Oh, and don’t worry about not having enough time to finish stuff, when I was on the Baja team and we went to Arizona we were finishing stuff up at 3am several nights in the hotel parking lot. Once again, good luck wish I could come and watch.
