[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 251915, member: 2189"] upsdude, Did you get the chance to look at the chassis changes JFR made after John's crash at Dallas during the Richmond race? They did a segment on TV with John Medlen and Zippy in the background where John went over the changes. They showed the X bars installed to link the bottom main horizonals and the crossover to the top bars but I also thought or actually had heard that the cockpit area would be wrapped in carbon fiber to make a nearly enclosed capsule at least as it pertained the the leg and feet area. Now they may have removed the carbon fiber to show the new chassis bracing but I never saw Medlen make any mention of the carbon fiber wrapping. there was some added side wrapping along the leg area but nothing over the top or under the bottom that I could see. I guess I thought they were thinking of the pod idea like they use in fuel boat racing. [/QUOTE]
