Now we've
installed the seat and the steering wheel so we can make sure
the driver has easy entrance and exit.

Here is
another view.

It's official:
a driver can get in and out without removing the steering
wheel (this is good).

The doorsill
consists of two 4mm Nomex honeycomb panels, connected with
a carbon fiber radius.

The complete
opening of the door has a 13mm edge for the rubber seal.

We thought
we'd leave our new "BIG" pipes long to keep tailgaters
from getting too close. We read in the rule book that these
long pipes would not be permitted (just kidding).

The door
hinges are now fit and will be attached tomorrow.

These
might look familiar (to real Porsche fanatics). They are a
copy of the 908 Spyder door hinges.

Rules
say we can run an undertray again.

Andy and
Martin are making sure the fuel cell will hold 24 US gallons.
