No, but would seem to have a certain relevance on this forum (he said searching for said book )

I've got it on order. Should be here this week. I'll let you know.

It was discussed fairly briefly a few days ago (clicky), although doesn't look like anyone had bought it yet.

I ordered a copy a few days ago based on the other thread

Veloce (the publisher) books are generally pretty good reads. I have the Pinto SOHC tuning and sportscar suspension and brake set-up books. Both have plenty of pics and diagrams and readable text and are aimed at the enthusiast rather than professional reader.

Yup - Got that the other day - pre ordered it off Veloce

Think it's excellent - but that might be because I'm planning on building one!

So does it have full chassis plans and do they estimate a build cost? (Without engine). Is it diff or chain driven?

Sod it! I could not resist so I brought it :-) Only £16.99 so what the hell.

I might be wrong, but i think it is more of a "how to" rather than a ron champion "here are the plans".

I will buy it, just waiting to for a review ^^

Correct, sums it up nicely.

It can't be any good it doesn't say what your builds going to cost Its for racing so it must be stripped down so must be under £250

LMFAO! Lets hope so
