Gutted.
Fair to say, I'm sure you got plenty of valuable experience from the trials and tribulations surrounding it!

@ Ben.

I always said it was crap but you proved to people that you can do it and got some ace times for what it cost you. Didn't last long but I suppose it was never going to be a long time build. Fair play for doing what you did.

What's next?

8th fastest to send his time into that website..

Cause I can think of atleast 5 cars that have run quicker all motor and aren't on that site.

Hope your back out with another next year, I should finally be out with the v6 by then lol!

Spill the beans on the accident? I still remember the pictures of when you loaded it on the jockey wheel lol!

For a Corsa website people are pretty negative towards someone who built a fucking quick car out of very little. Shame that one died but I'm sure you'll build better,quicker one.

surely if your going to spend the time to do a conversion and intending to use it as you did, it would have only been common sense to change them
