Got me chassis and engine sorted

Now let the fun commence.

The guys at MK are building my book chassis it'll be ready next sat.

Sorted out a hire van and collecting the engine, wheels and chassis all in one day from different parts of uk lol. So if next sat you see a guy driving a Belper Hire van, up and down the M1 several times with a smirk like a cheshire cat give us a honk

Hi if its definatly for the race championship make shure they supply you with the right wishbones as supplied to james odonnel last week otherwise despite what they tell you youl be bending lower bones every 10 laps they definetly know of the problem hence the newer wishbone set top and bottom.

Hi and also get them to put the extra chassis members in as well this will save you having to put them in later as you definatly need them. They are pictured in the regulations.
