Get enough HP/TQ and some traction and you can race a ricer one handed while sipping a slirpy. Nothing wrong with that.

Well, sorry for the delay. I guess over the weekend California got alot of rain, than warmed up real quick, casuing a real humid situation. This is very bad for laying up carbon fiber. The hood was/is in the mold hoping to be able to be saved, unfortunitly was left in the paint booth and moisture may have got in. Next time it will be in a more secure enviroment. But by keeping it in the mold longer we may have been able to let it cure enough, that the moisture doesn't get in and cause pin holes. Mine as well a Porsche hood and a few other item may be ruined as well. I just found all this out myself, he is going to try tomorrow and pull it out of the mold. If it fails than the he just has to lay up another hood, as well as the other items. So it may be until next week now  . We shall see

That pesky California environment - how Kaotic...
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Thanks Scott for hosting the pics. What your looking at is a pic of the bottom side of the hood still in the mold(half removed for pics) with no frame ,clear coat,not trimmed or final layer of weave. Thats just to show that we do have something, and we might no later tonight if its going to work or we have to lay up another hood. The frame is already made so it won' take to much longer for final pics if this one works outs. Will see.
