Maybe the name has been used previously, but I do not recall. I hereby proclaim the DB12R as the Flexy Flyer.

Make sure you all break a bottle of sparkling white grape juice on it.

Jason, there's a ROAR Region 2 Sanction race at Track 301 in Maryland on August 25th.. Do you think the new Road Rocket will be shipping by then?
Best Guess?

I would really like to "show" it off at this race....

we started working on our new front axles,universal servo mounts,the rear cross braces for the pods and the pod plates.i will hopefully be sending them out for anodizing by the middle of next week.once that is complete then everything should happen real fast from there.the carbon fiber should be here any day now and my damper tubes are scheduled to go in the machine on friday.the flex plates will start running on monday.all of the pivot balls,ball studs,center and side pivots,standoffs are finished.everything is looking really good for the end of august.the instruction manual is being done starting monday and all the boxes and packaging will be placed on order. just wanted to give a quick update.

Can spare/option parts be ordered at the same time as the kit? Extra nuts,bolts/shims/etc are nice to have around...

And please tell Kari ( Don't know how to spell her name ) that when a call from area code 352 comes a ringing a special tone will tell me the good news!!

Too late!!! We used that for the Delta Super Spider years ago. That is until Sean Cochran and Jimmy Piersol came up with the chassis braces that gave it "random adjustable variable tweak".

Jason...Just wanted to commend you on coming up with a truely unique and awsome looking kit. I know that it is a lot of work and a major PITA. You may recall the Racetech G-Force oval car kit that we came out with back in 1996. We also used a lot of IRS parts and have to say the Dave Irrgang makes first class stuff! Best of luck with the new venture and from the looks of the kit, I may just have to try one in Masters if I make a come back.
