Nice Surprise at the Workshop
karlak - 5/7/13 at 08:49 AM

I popped by the workshop where my car is currently living, during the Duratec etc install.

Well, there was a very nice surprise when I got there. This beauty was sitting there and quite on topic, because as kitcars go, this has to be up there .




Started her up in the unit and OMG it was like thunder, hurricane and an earth quake all rolled into one. I may already be planning my next engine swap

Oh and it is FOR TRACK and Race Weekend HIRE if you fancy it

Not on the road - but yes we fired her up. Will try and get a vid of it


Will also try and get a few more details. I think it is one of only four out there and is setup for some sort of GT Series.
