well, went to prep and weld in the new rear frame section and somehow roped myself into cleaning up and fully perimeter welding the floor pan and unfinished welds on the main tubes instead. So here's a picture of 95 pounds of yerf.

Also got to thinking about the rubber bushings at the rear--they're going to stay. I think a lot of frame distortion issues on all karts of this type are caused by having a front suspension with an active roll center and a rear suspension that's rigid with no roll. the two together equal twist-o-matic. A little give via rubber bushings should be a good thing.
