I can say that this car is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only drove it round that yard today,and you can just feel the power!!!!!!

Sean worked it out,and power to weight,its quicker than a 500bhp cossie!!!!!!

It really is a work of art, EVERY1 at ZOO has put ALOT of time and effort into this car,FAIR PLAY to brom,

But you couldnt of done it with out us!!

i tell ya mate it was horrible due to running 15 inch wheels they spaced the link bar to push the wheel back so it dont catch the front of wings

so to get it right the 1st thing i did was drop out engine and compltey chop off the front turrets at the inner wings
and redesigned the inner wings

now you can have uo to 5 degrees castor and 3 degress neg camber
the customerr carnt belave the turrets look so factory
so looks like am good at some things just not typing or spelling
lol

We also know the guy who original built the car and it may have been cobbled together but only cost the guy Ł2500 to do and I was there when it made almost 200 brake on the rollers not bad for an SU carb off a MG montego turbo.

We also know the guy who original built the car and it may have been cobbled together but only cost the guy Ł2500 to do and I was there when it made almost 200 brake on the rollers not bad for an SU carb off a MG montego turbo.
It was a fookin weapon wernt it, built on a budget and done mainly because many said it would not work!! lol
