Und weiter... / Further down the road...

Wir kommen so langsam zum "Kleinkram".
Heute gab's sehr interessanten Besuch in der Werkstatt, was uns sehr gefreut hat! Bringt uns ein gewaltiges Stück weiter. Aber dazu mehr, wenn es soweit ist.
Im Moment werkelt Sascha an der Elektrik der EFI und lötet sich den Wolf...

We're getting to the "little things". Today we had a very interesting visit to the workshop, which made us really happy and will get us quite a bit forward. But more about that when the time is right.
Right now Sascha is messing with the EFI wires and soldering ....

Today we finally mounted the fenders and put the tires on to check the mounting points.
We still have a loooong way to go, but looks neat with tires on!

Some more new pictures (as usual) can be found in our Flickr album!

Update

A little update on things:
We had to slow down a little.
I am heading towards my final exam of the evening course I did in logistics, Thomas built a "camper container" for his Scania and we needed some things machined and ran out of parts in the workshop.
The parts in the meanwhile have arrived, the Blue Fighter Sled team helped with machine work and I have started with soldering the harness for the engines together late at night.
I hope we can get some more construction work done now, so we get the driveline dimensions and more parts ordered.
The very good news is, we can do the engines at the Blue Fighter workshop, which is much better equipped than our "shed" and much closer to my home. But this won't happen before I have finished school as I want to be there in every free minute.
Bad news is, my tasks as VP of the German Association are starting to kick in again as the season is approaching and this means meetings for the next two weekends and "supevising" at the German Indoor pull at Riesa in beginning of April taking time away again.
After that and the final exam, also in the beginning of April, we'll have some more time and I hope we can make some serious progress then!

Maybe we have some more good news to tell by the middle of next week!
