  1. very cool, but if they drove another 20 feet, it might have disassembled itself
  2. Not much. Brakes are functional now. I just finished the shift linkage and have lost one of my rod ends... have to clean the garage to find it accelerator pedal is done - just need to finish hooking up throttle and clutch cables. Then I need to put a wood board on the driver side and see if I can drive it around the cul-de-sac VERY slow progress on this car.

    Karma?

    He won't do that again
  5. If that can work, maybe you can try racheting straps??? have not tried myself...
  6. Welcome aboard. simplesevens and lotus mailing list will both be very useful for tracking history on your car.
  7. I have a "break" recommendation function sitting in the passenger seat. Hit the brakes or I'll break your arm

    gotta be a typo

  10. don't be silly - the obvious answer is you use your helicopter to airlift the caterham to your island. LOL
  11. Wow, that's quite a drop
  12. So the inboard side of the lower AArms are 2" lower than the outboard end? No bump steer issues?
  13. Oh and the car has not been corner weight. Still under construction. I intend to primarily use it for autox
  14. Terry, Yamaha R1, sitting pretty far back. What do you mean by "drop it right down"? If I lower too much won't I run into steering geometry issues? Is the optimal zero ride height of the suspension at the point where lower A-arms are parallel to the ground?
  15. John, more of a brain fart than typo... 13" rims. tire diameter looks like 20.5"
  16. A friend sent me this...
  17. What is the typical ground clearance for the chassis with 10" rims? As it sits, my chassis is about 6" off the ground, with lower Aarms pretty much parallel to the ground. My oil pan is flush with the chassis, so I don't need that much ground clearance - plus this car probably won't see much road duty at all - if any. What's the common solution to lowering the chassis without screwing up the front suspension geometry? I have my own ideas, but don't wanna hack this chassis
  18. no purse swingin'
  19. Thanks guys.
  20. I have drums in the back...
  21. doubt it... the pedal it came with had a balance bar.
  22. My cat came with a 5/8" and a 3/4" master. Anyone know which goes to rear or front?
  23. I love happy endings
  24. Ordered online... Thanks
  25. looks stock to me
