WTF? Have I been under a rock? Please count me in. Payment sent any damn way.

These are in the works. TOG will be printing these next week and the metal shop was given the go ahead.

I can't wait. This may look a little weird on my pole position 2 but what the heck.

Bah.. Don't feel so bad... I'm actually putting the break pedal on my upright for this (even though I will never use it).

Well there will be one on my PP cockpit you saw today and it should look pretty sweet. Maybe one day it will make it's way to you.

In anticipation, I actually got busy cleaning up my Sit Down PPII. I had a problem for awhile with it not always booting on the first few tries. After moving the voltages up to just over 5 on both boards, I'm happy to say it starts every time.

I've also had problems with the colors not looking right on my Matsushita. I removed the neck board and moved the red, blue, and green color pots around and it cleared that up. It seems that they just needed turned a few times to work properly.

The board cage on this thing gets really hot, so I made this air duct to fit down over the fan. It seems to work pretty well, as I can now feel the hot air being vented out the fan port. I'm thinking about maybe adding an intake fan or two to the opening just under the dash, and just above the coin door. Perhaps one of those with the blue LED built-in would give a nice glow effect.

I have one of those for this very purpose. The one I have in there now sounds like the engine on a Swamp Person's Air Boat.

Oh, damn. I haven't looked at the opening from the inside, but maybe I could build a port to bring the vent back into the cab, and use a larger fan, I'm talking about making something out of lightweight wood that could have the fan mounted at the end.

And thanks for all the hard work to make this happen. I know we had talked about this a year or two ago. I was totally syched when I saw that it was happening.

Any production updates?

 

[Takeman]

There were a couple tweaks to the art done and should be printing this week hopefully. Metal is still in production.

 

[Takeman]

Talked to Rich, said he is printing the coming week. Tweaks were done.

Metal panels should be back from Powder coat this week as well.

 

[Takeman]

Metal part is done & in my hands. I'll try and post pics Sat. Just waiting on the art.

 

[HFK]

Woot! (that is what the kids are saying now-a-days, right?) Wait, maybe it's supposed to be OMFGBBQWOOT.

Pics of the new panel

I still have a few left if anybody missed out.

 

[Phetishboy]

Did you set aside a panel for me? Or no? Just curious as I haven't really heard one way or the other.

Talked to Rich, he said I will have the decals at the beginning of next week.
