Devin SS Progress

November 29th, 2009 No comments

We’ve made a lot of progress on the Devin this weekend. We narrowed the C4 rear-end by 16 inches! That thing looks like a dragster now, and looks really mean… from the back. We are also in the process of cutting the rear frame rails to support the rear-end. Next on the list, we need to get two new half-shafts made that are 8 inches long (not including the end caps). This will give us enough suspension travel (should be around 6.33 inches), and width on the rear-end to fit the car properly. Once I get back to an ipod cable, I’ll be uploading some videos I took documenting what we’ve done. All-in-all, it’s a lot of work, but it’s not too difficult. The most challenging part so far has been making sure that we are considering all possible scenarios.

Check back later this evening for my vids.

Griffin Technology

Griffin Technology makes a cool little USB device called the Radio Shark 2, and for about $50, you get AM/FM radio on your computer.  Seems pretty slick.  I’ll probably use it for my carputer if reviews of it are good!
