I am reading an article on the GTM Libra on madabout-kitcars, does anyone have a link or know where this picture is?

The first car, destined for Australia, was little more than the 98Kg monocoque fitted with front and rear suspension, pipes and wires emerging from everywhere, a daunting site for a kit-car virgin considering the Libra as a first build. Seeing the chassis in this state reminded me of a picture posted up to the PistonHeads kit car forum depicting a Libra sat in the middle of a French motorway having been rapidly disassembled from complete car back to bare chassis in a 3 figure speed spin on the way to Le Mans. Testament to the strength of the pure composite monocoque is that both driver and passenger walked away from the high speed spill. More recently, this driver has been in discussions with GTM about buying a replacement – something that speaks volumes about the car.

I trust it was what you required. The photos don't make great viewing, but the passenger only sustained a broken finger and the driver some seatbelt bruising if I remember correctly.
