Dave,

You're Mastercraft seats are those standard width or wider? I ask as I sat in one at Kartek and damn they feel way too tight for me.

How are you progressing on the build Dave? Are you still planning for the debut at Parker? I'm ready to see her run.

Unfortunately, the Bronco will not be ready for Parker but I am racing in my brother's buggy in the sportsman's class #1815.

Things are progressing well on the Bronco, at this point we are shooting for the Mint 400.

I will have some new pics soon.

I see its signed up as a jeep on BITD sign-up.I will try and remember that number and say hi when im there at Parker.Or if you see the bright blue Vest racing Pro-truck stop and say hi. Rob here tall guy with goatie and mustache.Sorry to see it wasnt ready for this race.Would have loved to see it in person.Class 3 has really been dead right now.We need new blood and some cool class 3,s out there.I think all year ive only seen two broncos at BITD races. Woolworths and Micheal Birds.I had heard that the one being built in Corvallis Ore. was trying to debut at the Mint.The equal length 4x4 beamed with Quarter elliptical in the rear one.

Those short loop races don't do anything for me. I wish I was racing the BITD race this weekend, that is the kind of race I like.
