Car looks to be going very well there Mal! Also some top driving from the videos must have been amazing competing with the WRC cars!

yes but it wasn't all roses, we stopped 3 stages short we it lost oil pressure.
came out of a stage all good everything normal and cooling down nice and drove about a 1km when at about 1500rpm warning no OP , so check other guage same thing so shut it down. kept pumping water through everything to cool and waited, check oil level etc and went to restart , got about 1/2 a revolution in and that was it.
iam thinking oil pump fail?? but I don't know
Had lots of other stuff too ,lost clutch,LHF lower arm, power steer, broke engine mounts gearbox mounts hit some white posts and tagged a bank with right rear but nothing that slowed it down too much
Incar to come
thanks

lol... its the perils of what you're doing... Just on 10 miles of loose gravel demo runs we'd ragged the brake lines, warped the discs, peeled a tyre and introduced the front apron into a large hay bale.... We were just d1cking about... The sort of work you're asking of a car is pretty agressive to say the least.... Keep up the great work Malcolm...

That jump is epic! Good to see you enjoying it in anger Mal.
Have you considered adding the radius arms to help support the wishbones like the works cars?
