Took the auxiliary LH and RH diffusers off the moulds today.
They are not expected to do much on their own.
They assist the main diffuser to be more efficient by stopping turbulent nasties off the rear wheels entering the main part.
Plus venting air from down the transmission tunnel.

re japi

Looks absolutely mental! Good job mate.  :sign0098: Cant wait too see that thing finished  :P
Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

Ive not bored you lot for a while so quick update.

Just waiting on some tie bars for the back to stop the aero flapping about.

Im hoping with the contrast of orange body and satin black aero parts, you still be able to distinguish the lines of the car.

Was up at stupid oclock sanding bits for the duck tail spoiler, chucking a third brake light in, i dont know why, maybe to break up the slab back.

............. off to Caffeine and Machine today. Ill take some poor quality pics if theres anything interesting.

I'm sure many people follow this with anticipation of the next part or piece being constructed, so your far from boring people.

p.s. fancy posting up pictures of this becoming famed Caffeine and Machine outside and in, as we will try and get there some time.   
All the best Clive

Ahh just seen your post, didn’t take any inside the building, it’s very nice, packed inside, took some pics inside the wigwam and some cars, I’ll post later.

There’s a vw camper van and a Kawasaki drag bike inside
