............................---- Cockpit Pictures -- Page 2 ---


When Tom saw the pictures on the previous page he sent me the following 5 pictures.

He also made a comment that he felt, and I agree, that some of the cars on the previous page have "too many sharp or protruding objects and too much space to flop around in" and "we've talked in the past about making large flat surfaces that closely contain all parts of the driver." I'm going to do the best I can to do that on the cockpit of my lakester. I feel Harv has done a good job of that to this point ( his cockpit ).

Tom also asked "How many photos do you have of seats and cage structure to demonstrate proper restraint of the driver? It would be good for the interested folks to think about how the harnesses are mounted and how the driver is supported by the seat contour and about helmet restraint and cage protection."

I'm going to try and look through my photos to see if I can find any, but if any of you have some send them to me.
