Looking good Jim, did you fabricate the top and bottom arms yourself?

Not had much time for updates, a few of you saw the car at Bingley, here are some photos for those that didn't. I'm not trying for thre bling bling fake body kit look. but after making the car 4" wider and longer than it was last year, needs must. On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

The rear as been made 4" wider, but so as the front so the rear track is still narrower than the front to the same ratio. I've made it 4" longer to stop it being to over twitchy after making it wider. There is a big front splitter still to come to give the front down force. Speaking to a few people adding front downforce without doing anything on the back will be unstable at speed. I've made huge adjustments possible so I can easily reduce to the track a few inches on the rear without cutting or grinding anything. I've got sensors on the car to measure downforce, and the datalogger will calculate drag. Time will tell.

I made them from MDF, then Ian curley made a mould to make them in carbon (wet layed not prepreg), give him a shout and he can knock you some out On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:
