MK Striker
Hi Folks
Nothing been posted on here for a while so i thought i would put some info on the forum that i picked up at Newark.
Im looking to build again and im interested in either a Riot or Striker so i asked MK when they would be up and running with there latest purchase and
the reply was early next year with probably duratec or hyabusa as engine choices. I know the duratec is quite common but the hyabusa option might push
me to the bike engined side.

Thanks for letting us know.
I spoke to them soon after they announced the RAW take over and they were unsure of the time scales.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

At Stoneleigh this year someone said somebody they knew enquired (not at the show) about a Striker. The replies they got gave them the impression they
wanted to sell them an MK and weren't interested in selling Strikers

I was speaking to them at the Llandow ckc trackday in may, they were working on getting things into production but were lacking some of the jigs and
fixtures for the chassis and sub assemblies, and they said some of the body moulds were also being repaired, resulting in a limited range of parts for
the short term, but should be sorted in the longer term.
I had needed a wishbone last year, and ended up making a jig so i could make a new one and have the capability to replace the other side if required,
as at that time they had no timescale for parts at all, so some progress has happened since then.
