Pretty sure it's a failure because the fibreglass panel can flex/move,this can then lead to the solid/copper brake pipes fracturing.

Interested about the hubs/uprights as I thought the MK Indy R was designed to use Sierra geometry uprights?

Yeah I suppose if he's using same place as yours they were pretty easy going!

As yours had a couple of clear to see fails that passed.

Look really nice
Just wondering if all the geometry will be ok using Cortina spec ones,as my m8 built a Indy R and was told to use Sierra front uprights.

The side repeaters built into the wing mirrors are not visible from the rear at all,IVA tests are usually really strict on this now,hence people having to mount them in the front or rear wings to be able to get the correct angles of vision.
There was another too,can't remember now but it's in a thread somewhere on here!
