    Hmmm.... Well OF COURSE PhotoBucket has implemented some new-fangled reg that prevents me from linking MY pics to a "3rd-Party Website! Hopefully I will have this *#@%++* situation fixed shortly..... AND post some more pics of the BEAST (after I blow the dust off!).

    Fuel Cell PLUG Fabrication Almost Finished! Next step: coat with a light "skin" of bondo and sand smooth for gel coat to protect plug from dents & nicks. Then ship out for digitizing in solid works....then send the files to Fuel Safe for final "Bladder Fab" (FINALLY!). <a...

    YES.....and PRI Show as well....WHEN (if?) I get it finished! - - - Updated - - - HI-TECH DELAYS; even the most carefully designed components sometimes require an "ADJUSTMENT"! So I'm assembling all of the uprights and checking for proper clearance with the control arms and I discovered I...

    Simple enough.....BUT; don't forget "angle"=TORQUE!......and torque is what makes them squeal!

    I agree with you. The diffuser in the photo is off of another tube-frame NSX he had in Europe......doesn't really work well with the frame spacing on the FRISBEE.......but everything is still just being "roughed-out". I would fab a whole new diffuser where the tunnels started about 2 feet...

    FRISBEE NSX UPDATE! Just back from the official "Skunk-Works" (Tucson) with NEW spy photos! Well it seems my Shifter kart racing buddy has been able to spend considerably more time on his project since the last time I visited him.....he has even fired his engine (LS1)! I have to give him credit...

    UPDATE: Fuel Cell Cavity Prep for Rigid Urethane Plug (Scale Solid Cell Model) With the car upside down & level, I'm going to pour urethane foam into both the fuel cell cavities so that the resulting "plugs" can be sent off to Fuel Safe for EXACT reproduction. The TRICK is how to make the...

    Thanks for the compliment!......I will NEVER abandon this project....in fact, I will "probably" never stop working on it either, haha! The car is really MUCH further along than the pictures suggest......it's just that currently I'm doing most of the work with the car upside down, so it's just...

    OKAY, ....I'm back with an update! Remember that "Swing-Away Tilt-Ramp" steering column project I've been yacking about? Well it turned out pretty trick, AND IT WORKS! WHY?.......because I realized AFTER I had a full-containment seat custom made to my bony ass, that the rib-surrounds are SO...

    Okay already...here is the REAL reason I've been missing from Prime: Seems like this certain babelicious wonder-woman and I started dating just a little over 1 year ago.....and no, I wasn't desperate....she's one of them "real deals"! Anyway, I NEVER stopped working on the racecar, and have...

    Your question is one that MOST on this site probably aren't familiar with, so here's your answer: A Droop Tether is simply a device that limits how far down your suspension can "droop" when the car is lifted in the air (or FLYING over a crest, etc.). They serve 2 functions: to keep the shock...

    I'm STILL Here.....and I'm STILL working on the Racecar! Here are some random photos from various "systems" implementation....mostly steering, brake pedals, cage mods, & suspension "droop limit" tethers. All right....this photo upload system is WAY SLOWER than I remember! I have a LOT...

    HEY!.....I resemble that remark!......I may shake mine down without a body just to remind myself what it feels like to drive MY OWN CAR, haha!
