Would be nice to see spec of cars as web site is a bit vague. Then it would give us an idea of what our cars are gonna do on circuits. The comparison is obvious, but how compatible are the cars! They seem to have 620 hp cars handling circuits to a fair degree.

" Chassis- Made and designed by Speedcar Series, the Speedcar stock car chassis are made of fibreglass and metal bodywork material."

Are they saying chassis is fibreglass and body is metal!!!!!!!???


?? Not sure what it's got to do with pick ups though Kev!!??

Wasn't Villeneuve supposed to be one of their leading signings? Wonder what he has planned for now? ;)

Maybe they should change the name to Deathcar series with those specs, eh Bob? :laugh:

Brands-Top/bottom of Paddock Hill or Paddock Hill Grandstand if you want to sit.

Mallory- Start/finish straight, high up nearer to Devils Elbow. You'll be able to see most of the track now the trees have gone. Or the Hairpin.

They brought the cars from America, they were exported out to Dubai where they held them for a while, teams rent the cars off the overall owners of them. they got 24-26 cars over there. they done a whole load of testing out in America before going to Dubai with them. There was Jakata or how you spell it and Sepang in their diary.

Yung, I hope you're going to be helping us out at Pembrey with a spanner in your hand. If there's any damage, it's your responsibility lol.

Richard Novell's already taught him that part. He also knows how to take a few hrs dismantling wheels and putting them back together ;)

How come you keep forgetting the IMPORTANT things??? Its when the whole team consists of 4 people including me and I started it before qualifying and didn't finish it in time.... so i finished it after qualifying. And also had to do it twice too so took 3 hours altogether INCLUDING the time stopped for qualifying. :P

Something looks not quite right about them cars, can't quite put my finger on it but I think its cos they're so high up of the ground and seem quite softly sprung. Makes them look a bit like a normal car with a NASCAR body shell on top :erm:
