having just had my rear cross member off I can appreciate just how much weight is saved with the WRC item.

Again, a very very nice find!!

Looks nice! Will it run in Sports Libre with the WRC cross member or Mod prod?
Look forward to seeing it at Harewood/3 slappers.

TYPERV6 - are you thinking of this one?

Its not goin to have the wrc crossmember on, because if i bend it i aint got the 2K to replace it plus the cost of arms etc.Also i wont be able to just pick one up easy between races,so it will be in mod prod

Looks like a new shell to me, judging by the welding and the rust
