I got passed by a yellow Ferrari this evening on the interstate .. it was weaving in Atlanta traffic trying to go 90+ mph! :crazy: Rob

I've been having trouble with the horn working reliably through the Grant Security System that I have. It is the old design with a 1/16" pin which protrudes and can bend! (see above blurry pics) So I finally got fed up .. and got the newer design of the Grant Security off eBay .. and it is much much better --- It has two tiny button conductors in each of the two connecting parts. So now the horn works every time! I'll put the old Grant System up on eBay soon for people who do not care about the horn function. The older system has a lever that says "RELEASE" in white. Then newer design has a lever that says "PUSH" in red. Rob http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1901390003_grant security.jpg

I had to put more insulation on the taillight assemblies today .. the tires keep rubbing it off !! All will be replaced when I mount my new fenders. Also today I put wrenches on every bolt in the front suspension .. all turned with little effort. So I will take apart the suspension probably tomorrow and send the Koni Shocks back to the company to get them rebuilt .. and the suspension parts will go to the powder coaters .. Rob

Mr eVox: It was a pleasure meeting you when you came to visit me at home yesterday! Great blat over to the Tashtanov's Automotive shop too! I like seeing the pics of your Locost build .. You should post those pics over at the Members Ride section .. as a build-in-progress! I know everyone here would love to see your work as you continue! Rob Mitchell

Sporqster .. I would love to get together with you and see your Toyota Locost 7. Brad: It was great to meet you this morning at your dealership in Athens. Nice car .. sitting like a jewel on a frame in the shop .. a new Caterham with a new car smell! .. getting some new nuts/ bolts and upgrades .. before you put another 400 miles on it. Gorgeous .. I look forward to a run up to the dragon with you and James. .. once I get new shocks .. Rob

Andrew: I was at Ga Tech briefly in EE .. then transferred and went into medicine. I look forward to meeting you tomorrow .. after my daughter's soccer game .. for a ride in the Rotus! Rob

Blame Tipper Gore! Rob

Who let the dogs out?? I think I counted about 78 cars .. total. Rob

:d Rob

Nice! Reminds me of Richard Feynman .. who could fix things by just pacing and thinking about the problem! Rob

You know .. Dennis Hedges made 2 half moon screens for John Bowman's Rotus here in Peachtree City. Rob

Will it fit a Rotus? Rob

LOL .. :d Once you get used to the aero feel .. will you ever put the windshield back on? : Rob

As Bobby Kennedy once said during an investigation into police abuse of searches and seizures, "I suggest that durning the next break, the officer read the Constitution of the United States of America." Rob

Kitcat .. If we ever put together a FAQ .. your two paragraphs should be in it. Rob

Just a little more push .. and you are hooked7 Welcome7 Now if we could just get all the tourist cars off Lombard Street! Rob http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/695095019_lombardstreet.jpg

Off with the parachute! Rob

Another weird thing is that there is the claim that the planet warmed up a degree (?) because of the lack of jet vapor trails. Rob

In the ER .. we had every patient room television tuned to a different channel. I've been watching the coverage on the History Channel today .. Things I did not know: Jet fuel went down the elevator shafts of one of the WTC towers and severely burned a few people in the lobby. Mohammad Atta's luggage did not make it to the airplane baggage compartment. So the FBI examined it that evening and found the Terrorist Manual and the trainer VCS tapes. Rob

Great! Time to post pics in the members section! Rob (working in Waynesboro, GA right now)

Nice! I wonder if it is a left hand driver?? Rob http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1124721641_yellow.jpg

Here's another version of the same configurator program with different car views and print options: Flash Colour Changer Rob

Remember that Custer once contemplated exporting the Rotus to Japan! Rob "Ariel Motor Co has set up a joint venture to make and sell its Atom sports cars in China. According to Ariel’s MD Simon Saunders, UK production will continue in Somerset but this new Chinese production facility will cater for the burgeoning Asian market. Saunders wants Atom to be No1 sports car in China."

Idiot .. Unfit Mother .. .. hell is for children! Rob

naah .. that's for extra traction! Rob
