The FRA shell is based on thet Sabre Sprint shell. And my Sabre Sprint is a great road car, but there is some flex. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

The shell is a mini minus if anyones heard of that one, what sort of problem would you have with a 200bhp engine on board. Is this one ok with nothing or will it crack all over????? cheers for help so far |

Given Alpine 1600 or the like rallying and everything, I think the material is not the potential issue.
Rusty by nature
