With a Keith Black in it?
Keith Black blocks are so street.

Built by Tony who used to crew for Norman, I remember having the discussion with him in the Blinking Owl cafe. It was street legal, it also had no radiator. Street legal does not always equal streetable.

The bodywork on this is stunning. Take a look 'round the pits at the pod and see how many 6 second cars look like this. Lights, grill and working windows! Running awesome times with a lot less aero than some of the full race cars at the same level. I love this car, it could not have been done any better, brilliant. Agreed. It looks epic in the flesh, a very high quality build.

How do you incorporate a handbrake system in to racing calipers that dont have the mechanism fitted to them.
