Is the rear wing being stabilised more at all, it looks like it will wobble a lot given how long and thin the supports are. Granted you don't have 1000bhp and go 350kph like this guy:

How much weight do you think was saved with the fuel cell over the OEM tank?

Any info on which one you fitted?

Its having some X braces put on it yes, but in fairness the bracketry is pretty hefty already with 10mm thick ali used which bolts directly to the chassis.

Its a 'Jazz' one from the US. Very light and foam filled. Not sure on the weight saving, one thing we didnt weigh but suppose we could do it still and compare.

Rocker cover re-working and addition of the 3 breathers going to a catch tank which vents to atmosphere.







Cooling system block offs and coolant pipe mock ups...

We never went ahead with the mould in the end due to lack of interest/people willing to commit monetarily to taking a set.... So we just stuck with the carbon seibon's in the end....
