    Wow.
    Any idea of final weight?
    Will you get a chance to put it on a set of racing scales for an idea of corner and cross weight?

    Hope you didn't drive it on the public highway with the rear wheels sitting out so far from the bodywork.

    I guess in some ways the rear engine is less complex as there is no PAS to run/ route. Be good to see it soon.

    No,I'm afraid not, I'll put it on a weigh bridge when its all done, just to see the overall weight.

    Will you be refitting the rear arches to match the fronts Colin? It might as well be a bit wider!

    I was thinking Delta Integrale when I saw the mock up, and I like it. The cardboard mock up will probably last longer than the steel Lancia used on their cars.
