Something I have been working on. I did NOT do the welding. time was on a serious constraint. So I just did the tube work. ![http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z75/rbjeepthing/Racecar%20Build%202010/IMG_2779.jpg](http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z75/rbjeepthing/Racecar%20Build%202010/IMG_2779.jpg) ![http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z75/rbjeepthing/Racecar%20Build%202010/IMG_2810.jpg](http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z75/rbjeepthing/Racecar%20Build%202010/IMG_2810.jpg) the rest of the pics can be seen here… [http://www.candrift.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4368#post4368](http://www.candrift.com/forums/showthread.php?p=4368#post4368) ---

I am wondering what’s up with the rear though? It’s completely cut out? Pretty bad ass but what about the outer shell? I am not going to do any work to the car this year… but I have a wing I will need chassis mounted through the fenders… I like the idea how some of it is welded to the strut towers… that should be interesting… do you have any more pix of this car? Got me really curious, this looks like alot of cutting! I take it you can pretty much do anything eh I’ll just stop talking now 😃 Basically I’m pretty sold on this… looks fantastic… just a bit confused as there are only two pix, I want to see the progress and direction of the car 🙂 ---

So there a CanDrift link that goes right to the build with plenty of pics. As for the rear. Well… Let’s just say this car has seen it’s fair share of high speed runs in with the wall over 3 years, lol ---

If you were at DMCC Downsview last year…on the Saturday…you saw the car get annihilated and shoved back together by the team. WE just ran the car as best as possible for the rest of the season and Justin is rebuilding it for the upcoming DMCC season. I just wish I was back in Canada to see it like the last few years ---
