New Project with 2 photos...
There wasn't a section for this brand, so I stuck it in Locost Related. Although due to the build cost, that really isn't correct!
I'm waiting to receive the engine from the YouTube clip below - should be interesting...

That cheap vinyl from ebay certainly looks good from the right angle

Omega, no I'm not...

Kriss - Thanks, engine is an RS Performance 2.3 V6 520bhp and weighs 82 kilos inc supercharger. (gearbox is 6spd seq Sadev) ECU will have launch
control, 4 wheel TC and obv it'll be paddleshift with full throttle changes etc
Cloudy - Yeah mate, it's a machine alright!
Stu - Not as much as me!!!
Stott - No worries mate, I was trying to sound sarcastic, and it came out indignant! Sorry! But, no it wasn't at Stoneleigh, I am hoping for it
to be at next years though for definite!
Adi - It should be around 500 - 515 kilos, so yes, over 1000bhp/tonne

Thought it may have been Richards project.
I've bought some of RiF's Carbon-Bits and been down to his factory in the Borders a few years back. He was an absolute perfectionist and
his work was top-notch!
Put most of the 'larger' CF kit-part manufacturers to shame.
Sad loss to the Se7en community.
