a carbon rear diffuser (that flew off at croft and broke lol). 

 

I was at that one too. Wasn't that the one where you turned up with the car on a trailer, and you'd left the ignition keys at home? 

 

Happy days. 😄

 

Here's a pic of you in the passenger seat of my son's car at Anglesey.

I don't recall leaving the keys, but I remember that when the diffuser flew off, it slashed my rear right tyre. I had some spare wheels, but, they didn't actually fit on (either because of the hubs or the brakes).. haha! That might have been another time, as they were wet tyres, not sure if I went to croft once or twice.

Thanks I remember this, to show me how fast these cars could corner, as I was treating it like a normal road car, didn't realise it had those levels of grip till I'd experienced it. I remember feeling like my head was being ripped off round the corners.

 

Thank you for posting the memory @Andrew

I have this video of the car in action.

Thanks for the vid, like the choice of music

The interior is now like sitting in a fighter jet. The full thing wraps around the driver.

It looks like quite a snug fit, from the above pic, guess that's for aerodynamics?

You were certainly hanging on to your head! 😉

😂 That's how I remember it, had slicks from a formula ford?

Hi Dan, yep, still got the car, it's a labour of love! Just had the reverse box rebuilt and finally stopped the oil leaking! Luke at playskool today done a full set up on it again and it is running like a dream... Very happy with his work...
