Car is back, sadly the colour I told them to use is somewhat off what the gel-coat was so it is more orange in patches. Rob Johnstone Motorsport have done a great job in a short time.

That is a stunning looking car. Very mean and purposeful. I like it.

Thanks for the kind words. Loads still to do but it is getting there.

The looks now match the performance.

Looking good, nice sticky drag slicks booked for Brighton?


jeffw - 5/3/17 at 08:15 PM

Those are actually F3 slicks on the back. I have the full set of A15 Avon sprint slicks in the garage. Brighton should be interesting this year.

Jeff, a non bodykit related question, which looks very nice by the way.

It looks like your rads have use an exit up through the front of the bonnet buldge. How does the ducting work with the inboard front shocks? Does it have a big gap where they are or funnel the air through the small gap inbetween the coil overs.


jeffw - 5/3/17 at 09:33 PM

There is no ducting behind the rads.

Looks marvelous Jeff... just how much wider is it?


jeffw - 5/3/17 at 09:54 PM

about 4" in total across the rear arches. The front has come out 30mm on the wishbones and it is running 8J front wheels compared with 6J previously.

In the words of Chris Kamala, unbelievable Jeff.

It looks brilliant. Great work by Rob.
Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Jeff,

it looks much more than that,. in fact it looks like it wont fit in the garage

Any plans to take some moulds off it?

Howard

Had not planned to get a mould, I doubt there would be much take up to be honest.
