I'd say so ! Mine runs tight down the inner wing by your foot and then alongside you in the sill and I'm told it gets like a sauna in there.

Judging on the rest of the build though I suspect Dave has something planned out for that

Looking superb Dave! Last push to get it finished over Christmas!

Yep as it will get a little warm but there are some covers to go over the top of them and I also have them lined with some Nimbus Motorsport heat shield. As the car will be on methanol the temps are around 200degs less then normal fuel also. Just need to see how hot it gets really I might need to just man up.

Yep as its good to see the car finally going together, I am also nearly ready for a To Do list... so getting down to the final details.

absolutely stunning

i thought you are not allowed to run any fluid pipes on the outside of rollcage in case of accidents , is the water pipes running around the main hoop ?

the rear uprights are really nice do you mind telling me if these were specially made for this car ?

[Dave Rowe]
