I Agree with burbs, use the aluminium battery strap as this stopped my batteries from falling out. Even in the old tub chassis the batteries moved if you used the composite strap and hit something hard

I've been using the BMI strap since i got my chassis, and in a couple of months my cells only flew out once, now i put a bit or foam tape on the underside and its perfect. havent lost my cells in over 6 weeks now.

Where I drive sometimes you get T-boned pretty good and my playing chicken with the boards doesn't help either

I got the stuff I need to put on the strap so I will give it a try and let you guys know how it goes. Probably won't be able to officially test it till This wednesday when I usually run.

Jason:

Hi,


TURN YOUR PHONE ON!!!!!!!!!!! all I get is a recorded voice message and then it hangs up on me.

Good Luck on Saturday..remmember Fast is Slow..... (quoting Jacky Steward). also look for the new Red fronts we talked about.
run them batteries twice a day if need be you can charge up to 7 amps (more punch/less run time). and stay smooth.
I will call you on your cell on Saturday

ok I need some help......... I an looking for a place the does cryogenics to do some small parts (Clutch bushings and other misc things). since there is nothing in Mi I was hoping to find someone who knows a place where I can send these parts.

Thanks in advance

Tim
