i think it came up ok, gonna put another diagonal brace from the top left of the main hoop to the bottom right back stay, also 1 straight bar either side, from the windscreen bend on the lateral bars to the floor mount, and a diagonal brace in the roof :P

G'day, got the cage done and painted :D made some door trims for the front and use vl door handles so they sat in a bit more flush, haven't done the back ones yet, dunno if i'll do them before winton, got a 5 point monza harness, and mounted a race seat i got for $50 off a mate on some ea rails i chopped up so the seats a bit lower, also got padding for the cage and made a little pad to go on the steering wheel bolt haha, tell me what you think, i have a race a winton on saturday in about a week :D

Hey, sorry haven't updated since winton, couldn't be bothered haha, car went ok, injectors blocked up half way through race one, i did the next 2 races with it running on about 4 maybe 5, i got a 1:54 in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd race, then at the end of race three the power steering pump died, i fixed the injectors then went out and did race 4 with no power steering at all, i got a 1:50.0, i didn't bother going out in the last race as it wasn't worth the risk haha, i had fun in the morning practice coz it was wet so i couldn't help my self lol, there was a 5.7 ltr 6 spd vt ss it got a 1:55 lap haha, i got third again, i really need some better tyres and a bit more go haha, and i need some lower springs for the back, i'll upload vids during the next week haha :P it was a fun day anyways
