Not sure if we are going to fit the nos. Once I`ve got the supercharger working in unison with the sequential gearchange paddle type of course. Might consider piping the nos up then.

The car is set up for a oval grass circuit and will not be suited for a circuit like snetterton

This is a specialised top race car & is designed to only go round in circles very fast.

It would be a bit like asking a Speedway bike to compete in a Moto GP.

It's going really well thank you,
How are the 2 MSOC cars, must be nearly there by now.
Please try not to damage our paint work when you keep lapping us.

We have made lots of plans for the car, and in the fullness of time i'm sure we will commence our plan.
Rear ballast is sorted (and no not me, Tiny or Phil!!!!!)
Plating to close the engine bay from dust is sorted, cheers spec C.
It can't take long to rip the interior out, to save some weight.
And i've sorted the rollers and dulux for that special ESC look.
