Bet the car goes really well though - shame it'll never be used properly. Get it booked on a trackday and stop mincing around with it!

We was chattin not so long ago & we think there's only 1 or 2 mechanical parts not changed on the whole car ! 
Thing is tho, most the bits not just been changed or up-rated, they been replaced with some of the best parts money car buy ! ! !
Budget would be probably more than most earn in a year !
Respect to Dave tho, he's done it ! Never gave up or lost sight, properly determind to get the car to the spec it is today & he'd done it !
Unlike my low budget attempt !

Had a nose over it on Sunday after our chat Dave...
Was good to meet you and Helen
Toyo Proxes are absolute dogshit in the wet - we lost our yellow race evo into the wall at 80mph on them
Will be good to see it doing 2bar+

PassionFord Post Whore!!
i thought proxies were just normal road tyres? not semi slicks like r888?
surely the rc car wasnt running shitty proxies
sorry just realised the r888's are classed as proxes
