Hi Danny,

good to read that your project is still going,

sometimes these things do take a looong time in the workshop

in order to get a short(er) time on track.

By far the best 5 ive ever seen.... unbelievable skill and attention to detail.

What inspired the project, choice of car, spec etc? Be interesting to know.

It's been quite sometime since I've posted anything due to being very ill. Now I'm back in good health it's time to finish my project.

I've purchased some AP front brakes from Martin at Reyland Motorsport

Also got an Aim dash

My car will be going to Derby at the beginning of December to have some more fabrication at
JR Racing Exhausts. Julian has done all my fabrication on my car and I wouldn't use anyone else.

very glad to hear that both this build is back ongoing, and that you are now in good health...

Onwards and upwards....

Hello and "Welcome back" in our small virtual pit lane,

I had wondered if that project had been abandoned, good to read about your return.

What is the current best quartermile time of an R5 ? Yours surely must be a contender ?

Chris @ EFI Parts who maps my drag MX5 ran a low 10 I think a few years ago, 10.1 springs to mind.

The record is 9.934 sec quarter at 142.56 mph by Robert Byrne

Brakes and Clio Hubs finally fitted.
