Nope, just one of the first thousand to order over $30 in parts for an XR from VP

I did ask for a black shirt and received white, but on a freebie, beggars can't be choosers.

Weight on axle = less weight in tires = less rotating mass = happy Dicky

could you let us know the weight of the HR gear?

I will put the rig through the ringer on Saturday and hopefully come home intact.

Soon! Juan is about 90% done with design, as soon as it is in my hands and I have his authorization to post pics I will. I am hoping within a couple weeks now. I am more anxious to get my hands on it than you guys are to see it

I am not waiting. I have deal on a fastback chassis and I think I am going to pull the trigger. I'm sure I will run in to some problems along the way, but that is why they call it fun.
