Well I have finally gotten around to building (most of) the back end of the chassis, incorporating the BMW rear axle assembly.

This afternoon i fitted one wheel to check clearances, and suddenly the pile of steel started looking something like a big go kart! I'm well chuffed.

It's a great feeling isnt it.

Makes all of the hard work worthwhile.

is there anyone else as sad as me, that recognised that as a quote from Mark of "is born" fame?

For a bonus point can anyone identify the series he said it in?

right, I'm off to the train spotting forum....

Top guy Mark Evans. Wish i could meet him for a beer.

As he's a vet as well how about "a Giraffe is born"?!?

Well done on the wheel though - finally feels like getting somewhere

Steve

is it 'a race car is born', where he builds and race's a 7?
its watching these that pushed me to sell my car and order my kit

top marks to pocket rocket.

You too are a geek like me.

I was a bit unsure about whether I'd have the clearance at the back end on mine but looking at this I think I should be fine.

Hope to be there too soon, spent the weekend final welding and dressing of the chassis....
