Re: My Rollcage Project
Thank you, guys. I am glad to be back to DSMs. Once you start it is almost impossible to give those things up. It's one of those messed up love-hate relationships. The red car sits in my garage and it will take entirely too much cash to finish soon. So, that project has been postponed to "someday soon". Yup, the red car at RF and the youtube vids with the EVO8 was me back in 2006. I wanted to lighten up the red car for 2006 and got carried away and cut apart a perfectly running DSM and then life happened, house, etc. Now its time to have a fun vehicle and go to the track for fun. I drive a Dodge Ram pickup and it's good for hauling stuff but the fun factor in it is ZERO. The talon is supposed to fix that problem. The rollcage is going in it because, I don't want to get kicked out from the track and because I have never done one and really wanted to make something as stealth as possible. As far as the Tim's old evo is concerned, it got sold back in 2007 when it was a rolling shell with a front/rear suspension, brakes and a rear diff. The guy who bought it is still working on it. Those cars looks simple and it seems that there is nothing in them but there is so much crap to be done its incredible and the costs keep on adding up. For example ... you can dish out 3500 bucks on a read diff housing alone.
