i didnt make it 2 days on the track with the shoegoo treatment..
it made the whole front so solid that it started 'taco-ing' where the hood meets the windshield
You used WAY too much shoe goo. Also use Drywall tape like BashemSmashem said. Bodies will be MUCH stronger AND protect the paint, it's a win-win. Kinda like taking TQ and winning the A-main in the same day. Not that I've done it, but some day soon I'm hoping to lol
