Quick updates on rear wheel skirts

Picked up my plastic today from the plastic shop in Tualatin. Best highway trip yet from Salem to Tualatin. Had a tailwind of 10-15MPH and drafted (3 seconds distance) a semi truck at ~59 MPH, so I don't expect to see these kinds of numbers again any time real soon. For the record I was stopped in front of the shop when I took this picture, NOT driving as the little car icon would indicate.



When I ordered my plastic I asked for two 2' x 3' sheets of the ABS. Apparently the charge of $57 was for the ENTIRE SHEET of ABS, including having it cut. The salesperson didn't make it clear to me, but there's actually another 4'x4' sheet left over and I apparently get to just keep that. That's great 'cause there's all kinds of junk I can use it for.



Here are the sheets for reference. Please excuse the potato quality.



Anyway that's my quick update. Need to buy a new blade for my jigsaw, then it's cutting time. Should be resuming work tomorrow AM.
