I'm actually speechless having seen these pictures, taken in a professional photo studio in the US:

stunning, lets hope it goes as well as it looks.

1 question . . .how do you get in it with that cage ?

[spadge]

The USA Stig must be very bendy.

It's a 997cc MAE I think and it has tested at 124 mph which is 2 mph more than the record.

Personally, I like going around corners!

Yes. I used to have a link to it but it was not updated for ages so I thought that the project had stalled. I am glad to see that it is still happening.

...and the nose-on shot as used in the main blog makes a very pleasing desktop background on the old work laptop. what a beaut!

I spoke to Bregt sometime last year about Inlet manifolds, I hadn't seen or heard of any developements so its good to see it back on course

122mph . . .doddle, spadge can do that on 3 wheels through the bomb hole in a G4

That's the old Peter Saben car, one of only two pop-up light G4s I've ever seen
