No Tony, not guilty this time, although it is the work of someone on this list. No names no pack drill A few tweaks here and there and I think MK
will have a decent site that will be updated on a regular basis.

38mm on a 6.5 inch rim.
They fill the arches well dont they?
These are VERY CLOSE to being proud of the rear arches as the alloys bow outwards from the centre so be careful !(SVA Failure)
MK recommends 50mm offset, but they weren't available in that range.

Rip off Chassis

tries copying that.
I've been looking into building a seven replica for a while and I've done a lot of "Homework" and what I can't
understand is this:-
People are ripping of MK's chassis, there is no doubt, but the "copies" are MORE EXPENSIVE!!!!! not only that but the quality of
them is nowhere near as good, what sort of business is that??
I could understand it if they were "cheap" copies, you could take the drop in quality if you were paying less, but why would you pay more
for a clearly inferior product?

It's ok - anyone copying 'that' design will spend more money making it work that if they'd started from scratch. - It's
'evolved' from there I believe well it has on my car

Re site:
I'm surprised how good Jon Ison looks in a bikini.
Must have been a bit chilly on the way there?

Yeah you're right there, Jon Ison looks stunning in a bikini, or is it just that he's standing in a GT1?? The new web site's great,
showing a much better brace of cars than the old site. I wondered why the old one was never updated, now I know they were gonna update it in a big way
so didn't bother. The Indy kit looks great -11 piece GRP!! That black beast looks fantastic. Now I know what colour to go for!!
If it isn't low-cost it isn't locost!

To be fair, the guy who used to do it did it for free and the only reason it wasn't updated regularly is because Martin never gave him anything
to work with. Things have changed a little now and if things need putting on they'll done much quicker.
