It was on ebay a few weeks back....despite a 8 hour round trip...i went for a look and left undecided....We had some conversations and i was able to do a bit more research and i secured the car a little less than advertised....The seller was very genuine and had been racing for 20 + years and has used it for a double header this year with class wins.
In fact 1 of my mates went to school with him and said he was a good egg....small world.

The engine i believe went in 2011/12 by a previous owner and he had noise issues, as race regs noise limits are higher this does not poise a problem......it has a day use mot....and i took it up the road and its raw....scared the living daylight outta me tbh.

I have 2 inches of history on the car inc. build manual, all the mots from westfield and the RX8 donor..and can put mileage on engine at 64000...there is a good comp test in 2011. Not bothered bout engine anyways as will put a fresh rebuild in for next year! And keep this engine as a spare.

Its tatty in places..but its a race car...everything\'s in date...with quality components.

The full Rx8 loom is in there so i will be tackling that to keep the electrical gremlins at bay.

The axle is english .....and a tad concerned long time exposure to this power will put a nail in its coffin...but have some plans for that as well.

Was going to enter last race at combe on 5th Oct but is a very short time away...and feel it would be putting (me) a kitten in with the lions....so its test days first to learn the car and have a few jobs anyway.

Pictures to follow...
