Not sure on the engine spec, as he keeps changing his mind :cry:.

But it will be between 480 and 580bhp :cry:.

Transmission is FFD 6-speed dog box.

Note roller-bearing mounted steering rack to convert LHD rack (allowing the works spec big diff on the front) to right hand drive :eek: :top:.

Car will weigh 1200kg MAX and he has told me that he is going to wipe the floor with me :cry:.

Proper Grp A rear beam:

Nine inch rear diff:

Grp A crossmember:

Carbon fibre rear WRC spoiler:

This will have it's main debut at Croft :top:
