I think what's going to give you trouble is the trunk lid. You cut basically all the way up to it, so any sloped flare won't really work unless you try to blend it into the trunk lid as well. I'm curious to see what you end up doing.

First auto x Feb 28 NASA event at VMP




On Feb 20th I went to my favorite shop PTuning in Manassas,VA for a corner balance and 4 wheel alignment

the final result for my corner balance with a 200 lbs ballast for driver

LF 703 lbs RF 636 lbs
LR 727 lbs RR 664 lbs

Cross 49.93%

Car weight w/o driver 2530
Car weight w/ driver 2730

the car has 49/51 weight distribution which caught my off guard. I really wasn't expecting that.

The car also surprised me with the weight.... I was really hoping to be at the 2000-2300 mark.

But I think I can figure out how to shed more weight my ideas are

-rear lexan windshield
-rear quarter windows lexan
-driver and passenger windows lexan
-Fiber glass hood and trunk
-light weight battery
-aluminum front fenders?
- lighter wheels? lol idk

These are my alignment specs

Front Right Left
Caster 5.8 5.8
Camber -2.7 -2.7
Toe 0 0

Rear
Camber -2.4 -2.4
Toe 1/16" 1/16"


onto the pics....










ill get more pics later, stay tuned :)
