The B-mod waiting for it's new body!
So, you'd think that being that there is snow on the ground and it's freezing cold, that the racecars could maybe just hibernate for the winter?! Not so... Shane and Grandpa Dean put the old B-mod body onto the A-mod this past week. He learned quickly (last year) that there's no need to put a brand new body on a car that's going racing in Florida- which is still up in the air! Tuesday, Shane went with Matt Wiesman to Fargo to pick up his car, and Shane's new body for the B-mod. Mason helped put the body on last night...together they accomplished the hood & nose piece (Mason loves using the "ribet gun"). Kyle Strand came over all day yesterday to put some new parts on the B-mod... I'm not sure what they all accompished, but when I went out there, the car had fallen right off the air jack!
Today, Shane is doing his best to save some money, so he thought he'd attempt to rebuild his transmission by himself. Might I add....he's never had any experience with this! So, I googled all morning for instructions on how to put the million pieces back together, but found nothing! A few phone calls and 5 hours later, he is currently getting it back in working condition~ A Big Thank-You to Joe at Rapid Performance for emailing us the instruction manual! Although, I still think the $200 for a professional to do it, is worth it!
