Good ol Richard...hopefully get down there to see him soon...
I thought about paying them a visit when I go back to Newport Beach. We were trying to go in May '24, but it got pushed back a bit.

I ran those 1700 trinity cells in 96 too at the worlds...car is great as is but would be "more correct" with the red 1400 cells too
If I had a stock motor in there I would have used my red 1400 SCR's, but since I am using a high end mod the black cells were the best choice. Looking at old races in RCCA most if not all the top drivers ran black cells with mod motors. I know I did when I was racing during that time frame.

The vintage Autographics number decals arrived today. At this point I am calling it done for now. Thanks to all that offered advice and contributed parts to the build. :D
