looks slow to me ;)

that car is truly, truly nuts! :crazy:

and I'd like 2 of them please...:yes::tu:

tell you what though, I wouldn't want to be the man who discovered the total limit of that chassis. can you imagine that thing letting go on the edge of it's limits? I don't think there's a sand trap in the world big enough to catch it. :!:

I've a full set of the chassis plans too... :smilegrin:

Your, still a crazy bugger Reub, I suppose I'll be on the build team when I get back up North. lol

Hey Reub share the wealth ;)

reub - October 19th, 2007 at 09:53 PM

It's not so much wealth...just extreme enthusiasm :lol: ... and stupidity.
Have my Oval to do first - can't bring myself to cut it up.

But yeah, is certainly a possibility for the future. Have a fabricator and steel sponsor sorted for the chassis. Had thought about a mid mount 20b though.

nah then your limited to only 700hp at the wheels and you'll keep getting passed by me or Bond on our back wheels, why not go RB26 then you can have the first 1000hp bug :)

HAHAHA.... noting like the optimist.... :lol:

When lotto comes my way and a Rigoli engine meets VWRX then watch out...lol....here is to dreaming :yes:
