I made it out of plywood. There are several reasons I chose it. Its cheap, very readily available, easy to work with, and has relatively good strength. Plus, I was able to countersink every bolt so the underside is completely smooth. Now that its all mocked up, I'm going to put a coat of polyester resin on it, sand it smooth and paint it, and you won't even be able to tell its made of plywood.

And to Nick, good call on the Mad Max. I painted the front bumper black before the start of last season and all the rock chips and crap you run into out on track pretty much sandblasted it all off. This weekend I'm going to start the paint and body work. I have a member journal, but it seems like if you don't have rubber band tires and a system people don't look at it. I'll post updates in there.
