He was amazed to hear it lived almost 10 years in the hands of the club and that parts still lived on in the newer shell!

THAT's cool KB. Please get him to write up what he remembers... I remember seeing it run but that was long ago. You would have been proud to see the way CC1 was being driven on saturday. It's still a great machine.

It really has a Watts Link? Cool.....I would have thought it was IRS. It handles so well. Live axle FTW! I'd love to see a dyno, but we'd have to use the one they put lawn mowers on.... Lol

it's not nearly as good a Watts as you see aftermarket underneath modified Mustangs and such. People actually swap them out for an aftermarket panhard bar for racing when class rules allow Lol

Yea...if I remember correctly the FB's Watts link kind of sucked. It was mounted off to one side of the car, the arms were unequal in length, and the resultant angles were weird. I'm with kbrew on the panhard bar suggestion, you can actually get a good setup from speedway engineering or pegasus racing.

By the way I've talked to Steve about this but I've been working at Advance for a while so if we need parts lemme know and I'll try and get'em cheap.

I will also donate free Dyno time if you do not take Shon herron up on his offer. We can also weight the car at the same time with four corner scales.
