Percocet...Weeeee!

Kidney Stones....No fun. Percocet....Better than anything we ever took back in the 60's. Enough said. If any of you have suffered the onslaught of kidney stones, I need say no more. For those lucky enough to have escaped this lifes little pleasure, there is no use even trying to describe the pain, unless of course you happen to be a women. The closest analogy would be to go through natural child birth, only, replace the vagina with a penis.

On to happier notes. The work has been progressing on the Banana and I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. In two to three weeks the shell will be leaving to have a roll cage fitted. Before it goes I hope to have the remainder of the shell stripped to bare metal and primed.

Once it gets back from having the roll cage installed I will get to the final body work required before painting. A few wrinkles to be taken out of the front of the hood and a bit of road rash on the left front wing.

Front suspension has been decided upon and I am going with the "FAST" IFS (pictured below).

I am still not 100% on the rear suspension, but probably Jaguar IRS, with outboard discs rather than inboard

Power train is still up in the air but right now a 3.4 V6 is in the running with a T5 transmission. That remains to be seen though.
