looking lovely - where does most of the weight loss come from, or is it just bits here and there?
What sort of cost to have a competitive car like this built? Doesn't look cheap!

Hi John, a lot of the weight is cut out, insisde of doors inner roof trim, parcel shelf, boot floor then you have fibreglass front end, polycarb windows, and juat keep everything to a minimal as you are putting weight back in with the cage. This car will cost 12k to build. But you can build one for much less, we have outsourced a lot of the work and gone to the extremes. Dash pedal box etc, the car should 580kg ish without me
