Looks very similar to mine stripped out ! I will make a progress thread also !

Have a look at Eric snails build thread on the ctro forums. It's a good guide as to what you can cut out from the chassis for even more weight reduction :)

Decided to make the car it's own limited edition wax! Even though it's supposed to be a weapon we will still keep it clean. On another note we took it out for a late night run on the Midlothian/East Lothian back roads with a friends fiesta ST, very closely matched with the fiesta having a slight edge out of the really tight corners. Will remember to get someone to video one of these runs next time.

The finished result on the rear brace things is pretty good.

Moved engine 1 to the garage earlier.. Bit of a disaster! The sump should have been drained which is what we were told. As you can see it wasn't 3 hour clean up!

Can anyone in Edinburgh point us in the right direction of someone who can re-grind the crank on engine 1?

Is that all they are? I wasn't sure.. The way they were bolted in made it look like they may have added some rigidity but wasn't to sure. Cheers
