and as said above its very boring going out to play by urself and its so me and ma mates all get a good laugh at doin the shit u do in stupid boys toys.
i didnt mean it like that bud,it looked very tight in there and looks a very special race car,hope we didnt get wires crossed,most people do put 2 seats in so they can take friends for a laugh i agree, it looks a totally mental race car for quarter miles an so on

do you really m8,a would say different,considering the car has pretty much no off shelf parts on it,the fabrication and making everything,myself almost,takes time,timescale that no one including myself knew how long it would take,i also work everyday of week,as said once you and anybody else views the car then it would put it into prospective the amount of time,labour,and all of the 1 off parts that have been made for the car,so the word eventually.....doesnt come into it...wouldnt mind seeing some of your pics???????
