Just returned from Texas. The Bronco racer is now in N.C.. If I could figure out how to post a picture I would. The bronco is really neat. Thanks Nic. Maybe Chuck can get us a few on here.

Critter picked up the Racer Thursday. I am missing it already. Here is the pictures from Critter's shop, I have a few more but think these pretty much cover everything. If anyone wants to see anything else let me know. I think Critter will keep us up to date with what he is doing to finish it. We are starting another Racer now. Also will be adding some of the ideas to our Racer very soon. Myself, Critter, Dan and Scott plus the new one make 5 EBs to race score as a class. That is enough to get our own class. I hope to make that happen for the 2011 baja 1000. Anyone else have an EB they would like to race? Call me, info is free and I keep no build secretes. Right now you have 1 year and 9 mos. Figure one year to build and 9 mos to learn your racer/work out the bugs and you can be ready. Get your wife/hubby/brother/club/work, whatever to help put one together or I can do it for you, whatever it takes just get it done.

that's quite a shop, i'd be happy with just a corner of that place!

 

[chuck]

Me too, in the background of the first two pictures you can see what critter does with the corner of his shop

 

[73stallion]

you mean the 18 wheeler with the freightliner century, or the mazdaspeed on the side of it?

 

[chuck]

Yea, all that in the corner of his shop.

So...is it getting a rotary engine?

 

[chuck]

The last I heard they were looking at a strocked 351, I think they were talking around 550 hp. Score rules require ford block

Wow, it's coming along nicely

 

[NicksTrix]

[chuck]

Thanks guys, I hope Critter posts as he finishes up.

How much are those tires and how do they do in the sand? Are they available to the general public or race team only?

 

[chuck]

The tires are BFG project tires. Off road use only. Suppose to be really tuff but Jason doesn't have any trouble destroying them They are a good all around tires. Silt, sand, dirt, rocks and hiway. We have been testing the racer the last few days and find them not so good in mud.
