    I'm not sure what's up with it. He's had a lot of stuff going on recently, so he hasn't really done anything with it. He was talking about bringing it over a couple weeks ago on a sat night, but I was working and he didn't want to go over without me to help him out. The weather seems to be getting a little bit better, so we'll see if the track improves at all before the WSN. :stupid:

    Not sure if you've heard about this, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!! It will be about as close to my house as OSW is to you. :D

    Shit, I WISH!!!! Per the site, they're planning on running the first cars down the track in the middle of 2010....the thing I'm worried about is that they also say they haven't even bought the land yet. :doh:

    Thanks , I appreciate that .

    I made a test piece out of some Plexi I had lying around , which I will use as a template when I get ready to cut what ever I use .

    It fell off the table when I was painting the back side of it black , to give it the tint look , and broke the lower right corner off . I'll make a better template that fits a little more snug than this one when I'm ready .

    I broke the old glass out with a hammer and scraped all the remains out of the edges . The rubber seal is actually in great shape even after 20 years .

    easier than I thought !

    Glad to hear all is well. - I would work with TRZ on the windows, so that they can simply have a hole drilled, instead of a big slot. They can slip the pieces on the pipes during install, or if you have them in place just drill the holes and put them through. - Like I was saying before, make the holes atleast 1/4" bigger then the pipe and seal it up with some neoprene rubber, 1/16 - 1/8 thick.

    I'll talk to my buddy and get those pics for you.

    Heres what i got so far . And the rest will have to wait , I'm heading to the beach for the weekend . Happy 4th !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The anti roll bar makes the truck drive like a dream ! I'm amazed . :eek:

    The Lexan is a pain in the ass !!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont like that I had to cut a slit to get it around the bar , but its not that noticeable . I still have to put a grommet around it too , so that will help it look better .

    Wayne , thanks ALOT for the Lexan . I really appreciate it . :cheers:

    Also .......TRZ did a great job as always .
