    Looks amazing, but why didn't you remove any of the sound deading or cut away the inside of the doors? saves quite a bit of weight.

    after running the white one with perspex windows for the last for years i wanted to keep the glass and not a lot of weight to be saved as you would need to lose 50 kilos to gain 2mph trap and .2 of a second the white car wheel spin to after the 1/8 at pod thinking of adding more weight this year to aid grip for this new one and the new rules for esc the new car needs to weight 60 kilos more than white one

    the bumper and arches i got from tony i had to twist his arm up his back to sell them to me as they are only a shell and you have to make all your own mounting and shape them to fit properly so as he has a big company to run he did me a favour so sorry to upset anyone that it may

    A 10 second c1j would seriously be some achivement..............in fact it's the type of achivement that most people don't belive untill they see it with their own eyes
