More progress :) I have been told that i may be able to have a free carbon wing so we can test out wing profile etc. It was supposed to go on someone elses race car but he hasnt been great in contact.From the testing they have done so far with the style of mine and the other car he found the air around the roll bars and central intake disrupted the air over the rear wing.This led him to leave the central section of the wing fixed and the end sections adjustable to seperate the cleaner air to…See More

Right, it has reached the crossroads where i need to decide on the colourscheme for my track car!
Let me know your suggestions please!
I was thinking:

Thought i may as well start a build thread as i plan to make some changes to this over the coming months, this is my new toy.
Its an MK GT1 it was one of about 10 built before someone bought the rights to the car and turned it in to the now Spire GTR.
Powered by a 1340cc hayabusa engine, standard is about 180hp. Doesnt sound much i hear you say?
Well how about that in something that weighs 420kgs
That should put the 0-60 time in a low 3second…

No I don't have my licence yet :( so she's a learner too :)
Needs a few bits and bobs adjusting but i do want to keep the originality of the car!!! Hoping to take her to a show this year and put on a stand, but not sure whether she'll look good enough :/ x
