Re: Dom's 510 Build

Haha yeah there's been some in between. The cage was done by Troy Ermish, and it was worked on very slowly in a body shop for the past year or so. I'll dig up pictures and post them when I've got a chance. It's become less of a father/son project, as I've been busy with school and have started racin...

Re: Dom's 510 Build

Thanks Keith. Solid tips to keep in mind once the fun stuff comes along. Electrical load shouldn't be too bad, only electronics will be the lights I believe. We're thinking of ditching the windshield wipers too because it shouldn't go outside while it's pouring. Good to know as well Julian. Do you h...

Re: Dom's 510 Build

Wow! What a plethora of information. Thank's for taking the time to explain Kieth. Well it's starting to seem like the lexan isn't the best of ideas, not until there's a purpose built car in the garage. Someday! maybe. I didn't know that the material was so finicky. In terms of sealing that makes se...

Re: Box Flares

I don't know if this is putting it the right away, but I like how it looks like the way the whole flare is used. As apposed to something like this where they appear a little large for the task at hand.

Re: Dom's 510 Build (Takumi)

I appreciate you filling me in with your experience. Our only desire for them was weight loss, but I guess we'll have to look into it more. Just throwing the idea up in the air at this point. I bet the car will see some spirited street driving, but its main purpose is to be a AutoX and eventual road...

[quote=I had "Shields" make a lexan windshield for my Vintage racecar. They got it done fast and it fit perfectly. I sent them an old stock piece of glass that they used for forming. The best thing is that they now have the specs and can reproduce a piece at lower cost for anyone else. I'm...

Re: Dom's 510 Build (Takumi)

Haven't been able to make enormous amounts of progress, because my clutch went out on my GTI and needed to tend to that issue first. Anyhow, I figure I might as well document a few things for my own good, and reflection, once it's complete. In the past few months we've just tackled the small stuff, ...
