I bought a KR2 kit and plan to use an epoxy with a 4.8 oz BID CF/Aramid. Maybe I'm wrong. But this seems like a pretty good idea. From what I understand either a CF/epoxy or Kevlar are both "stronger" than the original Dynel/VE layup. That CF is both more rigid and has a much higher yield but when it goes it is a "Catastrophic failure". With the Kevlar its weak points seems to be no actual penetration of resin into the fibers resulting in poor compression capacity. What seems to be a benefit to how Kevlar/epoxy is that it fails in a similar way as aluminum and is somewhat isotropic and not a sudden.
So around and around I go. Anyone wanting to chime in on this?

I just got it about a month ago and started sanding on it in my basement garage and realized thats not the place for me to work on it due to my son having bad allergies and asthma. I have no other place to work on it so I am have to sale it. I am asking $2500 for it. I will get some photos on here when I get to my personal computer. It is mostly built. I have two VW engine blocks with it.
