It could go back into the street class no problem. the car will be made street legal so that i can put a few miles on the engine.
my car has as much right to be in the skyline team as anyone else.
I went into class d thinking that all the other full on race cars would do the same lol
how wrong was,i so if the Norris,Andy F,Roger clarke, RC cars are road cars then i cant see why mine is not in the street class

WATCH THIS SPACE lol

Properly aweosme Keith Painted that colour it just reminds me of what my car wouldve been like if I actually had any money

Was looking at an issue of the mag from last year with your 0-200mph times we timed for you. The oens where we got all times for all the way there in 10mph incraments.
Properly properly amazingly fast

First time i seen your car in that colour i liked it,so with the new spec it was time for a colour change, Just to rub it in we fitted the Veilside bumper that you also liked.
It has a full flat floor with a diffuser at the rear.

Here are more photos of the front part of the carbon flat floor when the engine is fitted it will be 3" off the ground.

DO you have a bigger tank for your running in miles? I mind following you up the road out of Dundee towards Aberdeen, wouldnt think you would get far with that tank .

Hi Charlie

Best way to get some would be call RB Motorsport on 01704 822848
and ask for Rich he will sort you out with some tell him that i told you to call.
