Slightly more advanced than my humble project.
greats minds think alike though re being road legal.
I dont recognise the chassis, any idea of its origins, looks stunning

Ill have to challenge him to a traffic lights race in mine, as long as he is prepared to wait until 2010 at the earliest
Jimbo - do you have any email contact details for him, as I would like to trade info if possible
Looking at it again it may be an Indy Lights chassis - possibly Lola going by the steering wheel
