Very nice,
When I got my kit they told me the don't do the side pannels all the way to the end.

Did you get full length pannels (i.e. past the front suspension) or did you get non MK pannels (or modify them)?

My kit was one of the early kits which had full side panels. Dont think they do then now.

like it.

Did you know imitation is the highest form of flattery?

What is covering your roll cage? It looks about 5 inches thick. I like it.

Matt,
That is one nicely finished car. The lagging looks great on the rollcage, it looks like a rubber sleeve. If my half rollcage wasnt red I would copy your idea.

I'm glad I've seen your MK badge as the plan for mine is that it is coloured. What paint did you use? And was it OK for SVA even though the mesh is behind it?

Btw, where are your toggle switches from?

We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

looks fantastic - spent a minute thinking you'd got your cage out of 5" tube!!!


one word of caution, pipe lagging is supposed to do nothing for you in a crash.

Nice car Matt

Did you say you fitted the rollcage after your chassis left the factory? If so was it welded in before the bodywork was done. I'm interested in fitting a full cage to mine whith the bodywork in place so i'd have to bolt it in...

Yep welded in but not with the bodywork on. Quite easy.

And about time to ive been asking for a picture update for weeks/months

Looks great mate, especially like the novice sticker when you entering it in RGB then?

I take it you've just stood up forgetting about the cage as well by the looks of all the padding Bloody hurts doesn't it

*******UPDATE*******

Loved the scorpion race can as it sounded soooo good but its a bit too loud for a track day coming up so i have now replaced it with an R1 can. Much quieter now.
