TFA Racing had a great time at WOS in our new Lakester, 8 clean passes!
My Partner & I REALLY had fun and we are best of pals, but after the event he decided to do other stuff and sold his 50% to me.
This leaves TFA without his huge fabrication skills.
Predictably, WOS gave rise to a do-list and I need to locate a fabricator.
I'm in Houston, but will travel just about anywhere to meet up with the right person.
The kind of stuff TFA is looking to do is:
1) check/set front & rear alignment.
- possible handling problem, or maybe i just have to learn to drive...
- Note that rear axle is fully adjustable.
- May mean reconfig of steering rack or other major steering-related components,
- May be set it and forget it.
2) Resolve #1 above, then build a ballast rack inside nose
- pack it full of lead which is piece-wise removeable, 300-500#???
3) tighten steering column; its pretty good but can it be made tighter?
Anyone have a lead on such a fabricator??
Thanks for your help,
Karl
