New Toy
eddie99 - 31/8/10 at 08:27 PM

This evening we've received delivery of the new toy/project. More of a toy and the project is to keep it like that

Its a global GT with a 2001 Carb R1 engine. Going to race in 750mc bike sports and/or semsec. Hopefully both starting 2011, maybe a winter race around xmas time.

Here are some pics:

was watching them on motors tv last night v cool

I've always fancied one of those - make sure you let us all know how it goes on track!

Richard Quinn - 31/8/10 at 08:31 PM

I like that!

ETA: Is it 3 fibreglass body parts (front, tub and rear)? What sort of price are replacement panels? I'm genuinely interested as this is the only thing that puts me off racing a full body car (and it may be an unfounded fear).

Ditto...and yes Scott, you probably could make it road legal at a push (might have to fit some edge trim on the spoiler)

Yes its a 3 piece body. Not sure about replacement panel prices. Being a racing car and fibreglass, hope most fibreglass will just be touching us and repairing rather than replacing. Although im going to take some moulds from the body, worst comes to worst.

ETA: Im also taking moulds to alter a bit

Take a good long look at it now! I bet it won't look like that by the end of next season!
Best of luck & remember don't go for holes that aren't there!

Looks good Eddie, If it had been a couple of months earlier, I may have looked at that. Looks good for the money.
