They think to themselves "Oh---that's the guy that passed me on the outside of turn 9!!!"

HAHAHASHAHAAHHAHA

That's why the current owner of the white car came and talked to me at the track that day. He was having a hard time keeping up in the Vette, or something like that, when we were testing before the Infineon race a few years back.

Pettybar and support---starting to look like a cage. After we finish the sleeves it's time to pull it all apart, finish welding the areas we couldn't get to---paint everything and re-install so we can finish up the doorbars---once it's installed you'll need a sawzall and an allen wrench to get the cage out!!!

[JPmotorsports]

Got the cage out---what a pain!!! Welds pull stuff...Finished up the welding and started painting.

[JPmotorsports]

I forgot how low this car sits!!! It's 3 1/2" off the ground at the rear airjacks and 2 1/2" at the front!

[JPmotorsports]

D$mn that's red!

Looking great. I had no idea it was ending up as a bolt in cage, not R/A or NASA legal, huh..? LOL

Yeah, I'm guessing the petty bar through the passengers left cheek would preclude it from any rally racing...It wont be bolt-in after I weld the nascar bars in...it'll take a wrench and a sawzall...I'm gonna' cut up some $3000 dollar doors tomorrow!!!!

[jrally]

Maybe we can borrow it to run some local rally crosses... LOL Ferrari use to run rallies back in the early '80s. (tarmac only of course)

Hell with that---I wanna run Daytona in it!!!
Painted and re-assembled back in the car---now we start the door bars/dash bar and then we'll paint/touch-up what's left. We used red on the back portion of the cage---because the owner wanted it---but put semi-flat black out the front of the car because I can't stand glare/distractions. The door bars we'll be T183 semi metallic gun metal gray (my favorite) which makes the welds pop!

Couple of up and coming Piercemotorsports hotshoes!!

Won't be long before Luke and Max will be pounding on the race tracks... (12-13 years...)
