build diary

August 8, 2006: Car and Driver has put the Locost article up on their website now that the issue is off the newstand.
It's the same as the printed copy with one nice difference - a gallery of photos from the tests. There's some redundancy and obviously the best were picked for publication, but it's still a good look at the artistry of Chris's car, the stunning bodywork of Jon's and the madness of Mark's.

There's a new member of the family coming. My friend and Miata guru Bill Cardell put in the order for a Miata-based Westfield today. It's not a big surprise after his reaction at the track a couple of weeks ago. This is going to be fun. We'll try installing the larger 1.8 diff and it's going to be very interesting to see how Westfield approached the car. Once it's up and running, we'll probably end up installing some truly ridiculous horsepower. Well, you have to.

Apparently Kit Car magazine has a feature on the Southwest Se7ens Fest. I haven't seen it yet.
