Here's the photo of the obvious chassis damage:
Another place was the upper wishbone, both tubes were bent. With some friends and lots of brute force we got the geometry roughly back in line and I drove the roadster home. |
That is way mad way to test your welds !:D

The right lower brackets still looked parallel to the centreline, even thouth it's hard to gauge it. So I made jigs to weld the opposite brackets parallel to those two:
I also replaced the rear upper wishbone bracket, as it's been bent to the outside by ~5 mm. Cutting the old bracket out was tricky, but possible. Afterwards I painted the new metal, then it took me 3 nights to reassemble the car from this state: And I mean nights, from midnight till 5-6am! But I had it done in time for that slalom event! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbR0QetHxIs |
Steering wheel is on the wrong side,that explains everything :p
Seriously,it shows how well made your car is Albert and how strong the design is. |
