Andy First let me say the Chassis is superb in design and I am very jelious that I can not afford one at this time. I would love to drive it and give it a go before paying $340.00UDS for it. I know you understand. I know the exchange rate stinks right now, maybe if GB's pound went down and the USD went up then I could maybe pry a few hundred from my wifes grasp...LOL
I think I will have to wait till then.
Unless you have this sudden desire to send one to me to test here in Southern California on the Hot Asphalt tracks. I am about to start a series in a couple months. The Jimmy Babcock OnRoad Race Series. If you get that sudden desire email/pm me...LOL

Thanks,
Stephen <><

Mind there are sum dumbo brits here, maybe we should ship them out

I think this car will be good i had a quick go with it it was nice to drive ,but i was poohing my pants in case i broke some of the prototype bits, but i didn`t

when the car sit`s at 5mm ride height & you look from the side the only thing that is taller then the wheels was the body post`s
The COG is so low , the wheels are the tallest part of the car

I mean you might think the RDX is low but compared to this it is not


arent the body post's the tallest part of the car???

Everyone:
Thanks, a lot of work has gone into the design of this chassis, it's nice to know that it's considered to be a nice car to look at as well

Mr. Shookie:
Nice try, but you are not the first to ask There are only 2 team cars in existenece, I can't afford to have any more, as the article says we are not a business and make very little on each chassis. We sell them because it helps us develop ideas that we otherwise could not afford to explore.

im curious, will a CGM work with your chassis? a couple of questions.... how much stronger is the chassis when compared to the regular chassis for the SD and how do you guys protect the bottom from premature wear?

problem is on the 415 the motor is sticking out way too much, you'll have to cut the tub to let the endbell come out or otherwise will end with a very wide chassis.

i was wondering that? on carpet it would be fine? but what about the rough tamrac tracks in england with all the bumps like bedworth and ashby? is there anything you can do to stop this?

The `old` AEast chassi set a new track record at southend now that`s a bumby track, if it can handle southend it can handle a ploughed field
the tarmac was layed over the old off road circuit
