Something New!!

Something New!!

As some of you know or have maybe figured out over the last few years that I have posted things here at RDC. I don't subscribe to the BS "Oh, what I'm doing is so much better then what everyone else is doing" or the "I've found the secret to eternal life but I can't share it with you" mentality. There was a 40 page thread of nothing that comes to mind when I think like this. The chances are if you think you have found the secret to eternal life, or think you have come up with the next great thing in racing someone has already tried it or done it. This thread is not about the next revolution in off road racing. No, it's a thread about some of the stuff I've been working on for the last year or so. All stuff that is tried and true and proven to work. So if your looking for something revolutionary sorry to disappoint you. The people I work for want to race and be competitive, they don't want to be crash test dummies or revolutionary. If they did I would have named the thread "Something Revolutionary".

Recently here on RDC, someone I have never met questioned my ability to fabricate. The pictures below are the work of Curt Nicolitz, Ben Heath, Dave Whilly, and myself. So for what it's worth we can cut 4130 out with a hatchet and booger it together with a welder as good as the next guy.

Derek,

First off the parts look way to heavy. Welded way to hot. And look to be of an old design late 80's early 90's.... lol!!!!
