I need some sources for number kits for the new race car. I had several saved in my Favorites, but apparently a lot of them have gone out of business. Any recommendations? :shrug:

Not to hurt a business but you can buy vinyl VERY cheap and a stencil and just cut it out yourself for $30 or less.

I know where you can buy it. :D The vinyl business is run by a shop with several years of racecar vinly experience. The owner is really great to work with and is a racer (well, autocrosser).

Simon, I've done that route in the past too but sometimes it's worth getting it done by a shop. Some of the vinyl out there is junk. I'm peeling some off that was provided by a company, and it sucks to peel off. Other instances the stuff damages the paint. All vinyl is not made the same.

So here's one option (http://www.goaheadtakethewheel.com/vinyl-shoppe.php)for ya.

Thanks, Dave! Now, if I can just decide what color to paint the car. I've also got to find out about my number. I'll let you know.

Real business with real employees. Not a couple of kids working in moms basement.

Plus they have a cool ordering/ designing system.

Yep. Got the roll cage and other fabrication done over Christmas. Depending on work, family and other issues, I should be back on the track April/May/June. Did I see where you were building a new car, or were you just working on the old one?

Get it finished! Use the Time trial at NSS April 2-3 to shake it down. I will crew for you. I owe you that much at least!

I brought this home Friday to update into a pretty weather driver and if I can get it up to snuff I will drive it to NSS in April.

Very nice, Paul. The Time Trials is the first event I'm shooting for. We'll see if I make it. Randy Shedd came over to the house last night to discuss paint and body work.

Built a new tub (this one is painted :) ) and swapped everything over to it. Made it out to the ARRC last November. Had a few teething problems, but that was expected.
