Thanks for the good words guys,

Gatecrasher: the front ARB came from Tony touringcarspares, and then We fabricated it to fit with our own mounts etc, will get pics of these later

Dave, This is acting as a complete dummy build before paint, After the show I have all the Carbon Panels to mount and the roof skin to change so could possible got to marks for wiring soon after that so we are 100% happy with everything before paint goes on.

What no mention on the mag sump, 9" rear diff, Stg3 Beam, Mag pedal box, carbon steering wheel etc!!!!

Well the plan was to fit a gt35 originally and go for 600bhp+. However, I decided to go with responsiveness instead so I am looking to change the internally gated gt30 with an externally gated version which combined with the new exhaust manifold from Primary Designs should make 550bhp+ and a bit more on race fuel.

Also I am going to be replacing most of the panels with Carbon kevlar versions (hoping to get within the region of 1200kgs) which will of course give a lot better power to weight ratio and also take a lot of strain off other components such as transmisison loss, brakes and suspension

It doesnt work like that, the carbon panels are not show panels, they will come in a white gel coat and will need to be painted

the carbon panels arnt show carbon with an exposed carbon effect, but more purely for weight etc.

white is a good idea as its a very neat colour if the car is perfect, but white is to regular for what your doing.

type of panels:
