Looks very nice and very..... well..... short. Nice side panels too
I also like the red steering wheel glove. That will keep your hands warm on a cold winters night ![](/images//smilies/bigsmile.gif)
How much will it weigh when fully built?

That is increadible. I look forward to seeing the finished product. In my opinion, this is the most inovative se7en design I've seen.

What a power!! The race in Hockenheim was more a test for me. I was really amazed about the power of the car. In the first bend of the parabolica
(long straight) the car was in 6 th gear on 11500 revs so the rev limiter worked.
Must be about 210 km on the beginning of the straight! That was a long straight so I lifted a little. Steering and handling was not good because I did
not set the car up correctly (dampers at 0). When I adjusted the dampers and tyre pressure the handling was much better so I decided to join the race
(qualification time 2.03, slowest was 2.22 and fastest 1.53, this time without any proper setup)
We had a rolling start and I overtook a few. In the first lap I was fighting 2 sevens (one was another ZX12 in a MK indy), I would overtake them on
the start-finish straight but in the corner before I felt something and made a perfect 360 spin. I could drive futher and it cost me two places but I
felt there was something wrong. I stopped and found out a bolt in my rear suspension came loose....
But I am very enthousiast about the car and I will set up the car properly and test it on the 1st of july at Zandvoort track.

Looks good erwe
Does your roll hoop not need to be a bit higher though? In that last pic the top of your head seems to be about the same height as the hoop
