Yeah, I never wear plugs at the races either. Listening to the motors is half the fun.

I love listening to a motor that is running sweet. You can tell when they start running off song.

It's bit like the smell of the race fuel and the burning rubber. MMMmmm............

The advantage is no welding and the associated strength loss. Disadvantage is the fittings need to be made which likely means machined. It appears that can also be done for steel. High tensile steel frame could be used. I need to look into it more. They usually make the fitting to fit inside the tube, but it can also be done for the outside too. I think I'd use welds for steel and bonding for an AL frame. Possibly do a combination AL and steel frame. Steel roll bar behind the cab. Bonded AL elsewhere. Who knows. A welded steel frame still looks best for the tools I have now, but I'm looking at getting a milling machine.
We weld our ally frames together but I know Bushtracker Caravans use a riveted frame.

G'day men... you too Mick.

There will be no ketchup today since I am due to have suspicious precancerous places burned off my head and one that is beyond suspicion cut off my back this morning. I am so excited... And then W3rkW3rkW3rk.

The number one culprit is the fucking engine - the alternator is hooked to the second battery and I suspect there is a short there that is draining it when the engine is off...
Time to break out the multimeter

Couldn't you use "C" channel?

We have some steel channel on the rack at work that is about 2" x 1" x 1/8"
