New Toy

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:

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

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).

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!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

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