Yes sir, looking forward to it!

That's a shame you guys won't be up there I'm actually meeting a guy there on sunday who made me a custom muffler for my setup along with another piece for my build and I wish that would be the day to meet you guys too but everything will work itself out. Hopefully you guys find a event alittle closer as a FL race track is out my reach at this point.

Rob,

PM sent. Thank you!!!

Phunny,

Thank you for the offer. I believe Rob is hooking us up.

Steve,

Love the build album. I will continue to send you photos to update it.

Everyone has been just so great. Wendy is having a rough time but she is really fighting it. This up coming Sunday should be a great day. Alot of parts should be here and the car will be really close to cranking it up. Maybe even Sunday.

Thank you all!!!

Best wishes,
Brad Pate

You all will be in my thoughts and prayers. I think it's amazing that so many people have come together to make this happen for you and Wendy. Your family is very brave and I really hope you all beat the cancer.

I am extremely excited about this up coming weekend. Reason being is the tranny will be here tomorrow, axles came yesterday, all the fuel lines and fittings are here, wheel studs, boost controller is on its way, and I am eager. I hope to post some really good pictures this weekend and have some video of cranking the car??? Stay tuned.

Best wishes,
Brad Pate

Thank you so much. After speaking with Wendy, we are going to use the monies to buy safety equipment. Her harnesses are out of date, she will need a net for the window, etc....

I was told that the seat has to welded to the floor. Anyone have additional information on spec for passing tech?

Thank you in advance.

Its been a couple days, any updates on Wendy or the car?

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

any updates yet?

 

[girlieracr4g63]

Hi everyone,

Sunday didnt go as well as planned. The new hubs are in with new wheel bearings and wheel studs. I left the clutch fork and throw out bearing at home. Its a 40 minute drive one way to the Wier shop. Needless to say the tranny didnt get put in or the axles. The fuel system is almost complete, yet we were missing a few fittings and different size lines. I have ordered a stainless clutch line from master to slave, 1.5" SS pipe to finish the wastegate dump to the bumper for exit, and downpipe fange to make a custom downpipe. It should be done completely Sunday after next. Then off to the dyno, then the cage will be welded in, and lastly paint. It is extremely frustrating to see it so close but yet it seems so far away.

Next Sunday they will not be working on the car because it is the NC/SC DSM meet at the Fayetteville track. This is the day before Wendy's chemo starts again. I hope she is up for it. We will be attending the meet in the van. Maybe I can figure out what the noise is in the GVR4 and we can take that.

Wendy has completed her 10 days of Nuepogen shots along with the Procrit shots. They did lab work today and results came back that her white and red blood cell counts are close to normal. The shot are worth it. Her platelet count is low so she has to be extremely careful.

Thank you all. It will be ready for the track soon.

Best wishes,
Brad Pate

Brad, tell her that if you guys make it i'm handing her the keys to my FWD Laser and she'll be the first to put it down the 1/4 with the new setup.

So, if she feels up to it she can make some passes.

 

[TunersNation]

Brad,
I got your email late about the additional items you need to finish up the fuel system. I'll have everything ready for you later today & will give you a call.

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

brad, regardless of what car it is or when
i think everyone would love a video of wendy either, starting her car or even just a video of her excitement level about the car in general.
thanks

p.s. if you can pm me wendys favorite song or one of them i have a idea that i would like to contribute just for her
thanks brad
