Winter project 2011-2012 | Car called "Timing" will be built this season as a project.

Between all practice and racing with my mighty Carisma GT14B i will start building/modifying and fabricating my (not new car) custom car. This is only a Project, to relax this winter between all practice.

The man who inspired me is the body,lid guru Si at PhatBODIES he have done a car called Thud, that is a masterpiece, since the day he released some pics on that car i was sold..

This project will take some time and i will not rush it just to get it out on track..Some obstacle will be a hard nut to crack...

*Slipper or no Slipper
*Shorter front belt (i have ordered some custom belts for a earlier project,so this will be done, but costy
*front and rear tower? measurements are important
*Kickup or front axlemount that will give more "kickup" see how il solve this one

Hehe, il be dedicating this post to all you that follows me, or watch,look and so on.

It is fun, but i am ill and are home from work a few days, and this will give me some time to think.

I will be thinking of my hobby, i love it, i hate it, i want to run my cars all the time, i do not want to see them at all...i been doing this since 1982 (been telling this in earlier posts) . But today i do live alone, and have my loved kids one week (and one week with their mother)..they take all my time, when they are here, and when they aren't i want to chill, and do some small amount of rc-racing...

Still my plans are to visit the SMC in Halmstad, but only with almost one eye, that will not happen. The race-moment is not the most impotent for me anymore..that was mostly with 1/10th cars, to get my license...i achieved that, and have done what i wanted...il be running some small race in the future..and have fun
