More Fabrication

I am back to working on the "Black Hole" after getting the fuel injection system installed on the "Blue Banana" The fuel injection system works fantastic! I cannot wait to run it at the track. I think it is going to make a big difference.

I am trying to get all the fabrication finished on the "Black Hole" so I can paint the chassis again and get the chassis certified by the NHRA.

This weekend I fabricated the drive shaft safety retaining tube and loops. These are designed to prevent a driveshaft that fails from flying around inside the cockpit with the driver. A 3.5 inch diameter carbon fiber driveshaft spinning at 9000 rpm could do some serious damage if it was Flying around inside the drivers cockpit!!

I also mounted the air shifters in the car so they are easy to access when I an manual shifting the car.

Here are some pictures of the cockpit:
