Wow how am I just seeing this thread? So... how's that tube frame mock up work out for a Z? I'm asking... for a friend you see.

I'll be doing the NASCAR thing this fall because a few of us want to go see the trophy trucks jumping downhill into 5. What are you looking for workwise? Want to stay in the area? They are hiring like mad around my area (Janesville) 100 jobs at a metal place building fuel tanks. Goex (plastics place) looking to add an entire shift I think. There is a print place in Sun Prairie that's adding another line and another shift.

I live vicariously through your engineering and noodling. I know we are in the same general local and would be up for talking poo poo about cars in person over a beer or something since we travel near the same circles. I was in Waukesha two weeks ago for a wedding and spent most of my day at Veloce waiting for the event to get going. It was well worth the money spent and really got me charged for working on car stuff over the winter.

Stupid question time: Why the door bar laterals, x-bracing, plus the anti-intrusion? ... and the v-braced windshield area?

mekilljoydammit posted:The windshield V is huge for stiffness - dropping those tubes alone cuts stiffness by something like 20% I'm genuinely interested in what lead you to here given the field of view tradeoffs. Care to say what that 20% means in terms of chassis flex? Is it a safety rating thing?

Suppose I should get off my rear end and stop going to the old stuff races and check out some of the new stuff races. Looks pretty interesting and that there is a lot to learn.

The Mustang GT cars from the BRIC Hawk Redman Challenge in group 10 are always rad as hell. The Morgan +8 GT-R was an aluminum monocoque development mule and while I got to see it up close and personal for years the only thing that had tubes about it was the cage. I'll keep you posted this year on what events I'll be attending. If we are doing council weekends it's always wheel to wheel. Typically the VSCDA/Council weekend at Blackhawk, BRIC, Fall Festival.
