Re: West Coast Drive: Bellypan
Thank you to everybody who commented.

Our team has decided that we will buy a sheet of Garolyte for the time being. We did not know that fabricating the bellypan would be such a time/resource sink.

I fully agree that there are other parts of the drivetrain to improve upon first.

By the end of this summer, we will have a solid drive train, and will start the iterative process of improvement. I'm not yet sure when we will get to the custom bellypan, but that's the beauty of having another season to improve.
