FIRST PRODUCTION LMP SOLD!

I've been bursting to tell everyone for the past few days, but had to wait on deposit clearing (I've been down this route before!)

Anyway, a company called
track-sense have purchased our very first production car. They'll have the prototype LMP on the stand at Autosport International (Stand 7004, Hall 7 near the Autosport stage) and I'll be there with a big cheesy grin on my face! All 4 days.

Please bring your cheque books!

Only problem is, they want it in orange...





Best Regards,

Steve.

Congratualtions,
Terrific, apart from the money, it will be a good advertisment for your LMP.
Orange is cool.
Cheers

Let me just say.

CONGRATS!

I never doubted it, and that's the first of MANY, I am certain.

I also meant to add that I think Orange will work for the car. Depends on the shade really. Creamsicle Orange? Also, If I had a large sum of disposable cash, I would be on a plane to the show to buy one from you. But darn it, I left my spare million in the other wallet...

Seen this?

This looks Big Time!

The first academy day is in Feb 2005, so is the orange paint on order yet?

Unless I win the lottery, I doubt if I will be able to afford to buy one of your LMPs anytime soon, but I may be able to afford a day at the academy the next time I am in Blighty.
Congrats again, very exciting.

Congratulations.
I hope it's the first of many. If the numbers come up on Saturday, you can put me down for the next one.

Well done Steve, it's a big ask.
Any colour is alright as long as the money's right!





Cheers, Rorty.

First of many hopefully...

Get them to start a one make race series and you'll be quids in. Yellow and orange are best for attracting flies at shows so take some insect repellant.

P.S. I've seen you in a video with Tommy Lee haven't I?





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

One can only Hope Steve, one can only hope... Hard work is only part of the battle, luck and market forces play into it too.

The headache is "Building' .... hahaha. Slowly but surely. Most recent development is the interviewing of mold-making companies. I just can't trust myself to fail on mold-pulling after all these months of hard work. Too much effort invested to fail now. I'm not as brave as mr. Bertwistle!
