EX frame back from the metal shop

Got the frame back from Weiss Welding. They did a really good job. The guy who worked on it (Boyd) said it cracked as soon as he tried to straighten it cold, plus another weld in the area was already cracked from the crash. He welded the break and redid the two failing welds around the join. All in all, it's now looking straight as an arrow and the welds look good to my untrained eye -- all for $40!

Who says artists don't know anything about tire warmers? Visit my crew chief Alexandra Deitz-Zinger's Art page.
