Back to the grind...

and back to work as the holidays are over, but at least this is a 4 day week. There is a bit of a rush here to get things done as we have a demo for the customer in less then two weeks.

We got our response back from the LeMon’s safety tech and we have to only do a couple of things to be ready for our next race. They want a larger back brace plate for our seat and they want us to protect the fuel cell. The seat brace is easy, but the fuel cell guard can provide a few challenges. Ideally to protect the fuel cell a bar should go around the back of it that is welded to the frame rails and the roll cage back stays. The thing is it seems like we have plenty of time, 75 days to be exact. We mostly only work on the weekends, so that leaves us about 22 full days to work on the car, but we will most likely only work on the car one day per weekend,  leaving us a total of only 11 full days. Now it does not seem like a lot of time,  but between my dad working on a few things here and there during the week, and a friend of mine who is an excellent welder and metal fabricator helping us, we should be able to have the car ready to pass tech with all the maintenance work done. We just have to get started and I will for sure this weekend.

I am very spacey today and I am having trouble focusing on anything. For my work I have to read things over multiple times to grasp, the forums I am reading don’t interest me or make sense, and this blog entry just feels forced.

I am going to be going home from work early today, I have a three minute test to do that can only be done from 11:55pm through Midnight and I can do it at home.

So peace out...
