Introducing W7DE
Hi all,
Thought you might like to see the results of some of our recent hard work. Its been a painful few weeks getting this lot into production but we have
finally achieved it. Hopefully things can get back to some sort of normality now.
Pics are of a race car (one of a batch of 7) going out to Dubai's new race track to form a racing school. Hence left hand drive, full cage and no
lights.
This is the 4" wider car, whose bodywork suits builders of the McSorley +4" car.
Regards,
Darren

I'm not really back on the forum as such. Just wanted to introduce the new car, then let everyone have their say without getting involved.
GTS does develop the products that people on here ask for. I hope we do that quite well. We have our faults, but, who doesn't. Main thing for me
is that technically we are good and well thought of. Secondly, i'm not happy standing still and i really want to develop the business to iron
out our faults as much as humanly possible. Its been painful getting to where we are, an i'm sure it'll be painful going forward but we
will get there and i'm sure i'll look back on it all and think it was worth the effort.
Kind regards,
Darren

Likewise - good to see you back Darren!
One question about the lovely car you've posted... are the sidepanels/rearpanel one piece? No join line....
What does the car weigh in at?

dozracing,
I noticed the new car. Very Nice. I also noticed you mentioned you are working for a firm that builds/designs them, but you didn't mention the
firms name.
Can anyone here help out and post a link to this guys firm?
Nice looking car.
Weight and specs would be nice too....

I've had the good fortune to see this car in several stages of its build and i am very impressed, this is the one that they started at Brands
Hatch i believe.
I know of a few customers that were going to have the standard sized Panther change their orders to the +4 after seeing it at the workshop, i was
nearly tempted but stuck with the Panther because i'm slim enough.
Ahhh, smug mode!

What's the score with the cage as you would wack your head on the front diaganol bit in an accident, looks a bit too close to the drivers head.

i think you would already have snapped in two if your head reached that far forward in a crash!

I'm just a bit confused.
If there have been 8 built for a race series then why not take a picture of a finished car, unless I have missed something then that car is not
finished.
Also surely the exhaust is going to gas the passenger and how come it has a foglight, I guess it could be a race light but then it's in
completely the wrong position.
As I said I may be missing something.

whats not finished? The foglight might be too low for uk regs, but its the correct side for a left hooker isnt it?

Well I am glad you said that Rich, because I was beginning to worry that I had completely lost the plot!.......
Darren hasn't replied to my earlier post of wanting to see a finished one, and I am rather concerned that if it is a 'one piece'
body, and they are for a race school, surely its going to get dinged quite a bit.....and the front wings...i can see problems after a few spins in the
kitty litter....ah well, I am sure Darren will answer our concerns soon...
