Workdays

Took the Cuda to work yesterday, all systems work like they should. Commuting takes on a whole different flavor with a ride like this :-)

Footrest

I asked Marcus to build me this footrest for the left foot, as I experienced it quite uncomfortable driving spiritedly without it, especially in right-handers at speed!

Rear brakes

The Cuda spent some more time at Prototech to finish the the brake system. Marcus' trick Alfa Romeo GTV Group 4 Racecar  sits in the foreground.
 The rear brakes come as a complete kit from Wilwood, retainig the emergency brake in a small drum inside the hub in addition to the disc brake. Unfortunately the system is far from plug and play, some modifications and fabricating was necessary in order to make everything fit. A new master brake cylinder was also in order, as the one installed was too large for the new barke setup.
 Rear brakes installed in the rear!
