I saw a couple of interesting things. First stop had this Alfa coupe being readied for a track day tomorrow at Willow Springs.
2nd stop was at a company that calibrates the autoclave where carbon fiber layups are made for a undetermined (unknown to me) brand of formula race car. No, I don't get to see the shop side there.
At the third stop I saw a Z06 that had been clipped front and rear, a new GM turbo diesel mount midships with billet one-off multi link suspension front and rear with inboard horizontal springs and dampers. This one is bound for SEMA 2012. It has full CF body front and rear sections. The fuel cell is in the now unused tunnel. This car is still a moncoque car with a new rear portion off the bulkhead. Amazing.
For obvious reasons I can't say where these cars are. I just go by couple times a year and knock on the door. I don't know why they let me in.
But, no jobs today.
