Great stuff. But we need video and sound!

Is the Silverstone race on any TV channel?

[Fingers]

Yeah crank up the go-pro!

[Bernard]

Good luck John... hopefully you have a successful day !
must say the car looks great... fairly flat round the corners (ie no body roll)
How is the suspension set up... ?

Good luck John. A very good friend of mine Steve Hill will be there in his Mitsubishi Evo. I take care of the bodywork on his car for him, if he is anything to go by I hope you have plenty of spare panels available.:)

I know Steve, I used to race supercars, my company, X Sport Racing, makes composite panels, we have made mostly new moulds for the Stratos and make everything in house, so damage (hopefully none) wouldn't be a big problem

Double wishbones, no roll bars and 3 way adjustable Ohlins shocks, very similar to those used on the Ekstrom Audi WRX team cars

Any update on how it went?

[CROSS99]

bad start, broke another CV in first race, missed 2nd race then finished 5th in the 3rd , and 5th in Final (started at rear of 10 cars due to no qualifying times), so a list of winter mods to do, some HD CV joints to be sourced, change of final drive ratio (was only just enough speed at Silverstone, and its one of the slowest circuits), and more winter testing to come
