    spy shots from the FOWR top secret race shop

    well I have all the chassie stuff completed on the ZX7/9. and now I am broke and I'm not sure how racing I'll be able to do. I also don't have the coin for motor work, maybe next year. hear are some shots of my upgrades. Lance
    the first shot is it on the work stand all cleaned and polished up ready to take to a motorcycle church servise this week end. The gas tank is fiberglass shell.

    another shot is the relocated smaller battery where the alternater used to be.

    and the 3 rd shot is the 1 3/4 gal aluminum fuel cell I had made where the battery used to be and goes to the air box.

    all yea it now has 1998 zx7 forks and brakes, revalved by Mr. Tom Hueghy.

    Howie, Thanks. I love Road A. but I am flat broke, so I really don't know what I'm doing the rest of the year. I might just have to park the 7 until next year. Lance

    I got the tank shell from SquidSkins in Canada, thats also where I got the body work and ram air tube. They can make pretty much anything for the zx7's, carbon parts . He can make complete carbon gas tanks instead of the shell.

    I made a tank out of cardboard and took it to a friend of mine that owns a machine shop with a water jet, he cut it out on it and welded it up. Its a real piece of art. The only problem I have with it right now is I used a vortex cap and base and it warped just a little bit when it got weilded. so its a little tight.

    hopefully you will be able to check it out in person some time this year. Lance

    Send me the link to the guy who does the tanks Lance if you dont mind. Does he do all model tanks?

    Danial is looking good this morning and Howie and Skwid moving along as well. Not sure who he is but 409 crashes in practice 2 this morning.

    Lance, I understand! I just hope the money I have set aside lasts and doesn't get used for anything else.

    Had fun at Roebling, got a chance to feel out the F3. Needs a little here an there but has plenty of potential. Skwid and I had a little fun in the race.

    Thanks for interjecting your relaxing moment there Chuck! By the way, I think the paint held up on the tank.
