That looks fantastic, was it built from scratch or is it a kit?

My mate bought it second hand, but I believe DJ Racecars build them complete to order.

Yeah, does sound fantastic. I have some great photos of Wallace's Firestom shooting sparks all over the show at Shelsley - i'll try and remember to put some of the spectacular Firestorm up.

Here's a video I made of a 600bhp Dialynx Audi Quattro - the fastest 60ft. at the whole hill climb:

These are made by a pal of mine at DJ racecars (Obviously)

Turning out some truly serious hillclimb cars nowadays.

Incidentally they do carbon fibre wings and did the wing on the TopGear 24 hour BMW 330D.
