2008.05.17 The D-Day

Got up early, went to the garage, and continued to work with the car. It started to rain (to make things more complex), so I needed to cover areas, where holes were made for roll cage to connect to the front struts... It was quite a rush to connect, fix, bolt everything that is needed for car to run. Speedo was not working so managed to borrow GPS unit and make loom for it to work, etc.

When the time for the meet has come - I have noticed, that I have lost registration documents for the car... That was final hit, which put me down. Three weeks of "Go go go!" type activity, and that's it, FIASCO!

After few hours of searching - managed to find them (they fell out of radiator area in the car), however motivation was lost, event sports part has ended already, etc. Went home, and tried to relax and rest. It was too much for me.

In the evening, few finished touchings, and tried to go around the block. It was magnificient. Impressions are hard to describe (car with sound insulation vs car with roll cage and many holes to outside). It runs and feels like racing car (what a surprise). It was worth all the pain I've suffered in past three weeks.
