lol this is getting silly, all this talk of YBs and being in the middle of things lol! (actually exactly the sort of things I was thinking!)

Mike, we mainly specialise in standalone engine management installation and mapping, but we also do roll cage instalaltion, seam welding, and general tuning on performance vehicles. We look after quite a few cars/teams that compete in hill climbs, sprints and series such as the castle combe saloon car champs. Also find outselves building supercharged zetecs for kit cars as well as finishing kit car builds for IVAs and so forth.

I think project wise, we need 2 things: A chosen chassis/shell, and a chosen powerplant...

Powerplant, one of my fav options is a circa 400bhp Supercharged (rotrex) Zetec, we've built a couple and they pull like trains. Quite good in terms of power delivery as well so maybe try something FWD, then move it to the back at a later date? Or.... we have a fibreglass firm just around from us, pehaps a fibreglass focus body over a spaceframed 500+bhp 4WD setup?

The aim really would be using the car for hill-climb and sprints, so being light is a plus chassis wise...
