Yeah, it is a bit in yer face.

That was the idea though, more race car than road car if you see what I mean.

I reckon you should bring it over if we have a 'Le Mans' 24 hr party, and we;ll mnake a feature of it to compliment the theme!!!

You know that feeling when you're grateful for what you've got, but you fancy something else? I have a feeling that's what it's going to be like when I see this car.

It took me a couple of minutes to decide on your projector lights - how unusual to be mounted like that on a car like this. I like it though, a lot :)

Alan, the pic needs to be 'hosted' on one of the mant web servers, then you click the image button and insert the url between the 2 url tabs
like - [url]ALANSPIC[/url]......that should do it...

Thanks for your kind comments.

Yeah, still not sure about them myself. Had a tough time getting any solution to work as there is not enough room in the wheel arch at the min 500mm height needed for SVA to do the traditional LMP style. The ideal place would have been low and set back behind a perspex window like a real Le Mans racer, but no good for SVA.

Tried all sorts (got loads of spare lights to sell soon :) ). The plan is to make up some cowls along the lines of the Pagani Zonda, which should blend them in a bit nicer.

It does look a bit like a startled cat with them sticking out like they do, but it was good enough to get it through SVA.

Making some moulds will be a nice little summer job as it does not stop me using it :D :D :D .

Cheers

Mike

I think you should make your moulds and then check the aero-dynamics. You could stick bits of string all over the front and then I could drive it while you monitor performance :D
