Les - correct, and correct! The upper A-Arm on the Jag suspension was originally mounted onto that flimsy bracket above the main chassis rail. That snapped clean off, leaving me with one seriously wobbly wheel at 50mph or so. The resulting spin put me into the light pole. Shortly after my crash, RMC sent a notice and gusset to all known RMC owners. Coincidence? I think not...

Frank @ Nelsons is a really great guy to deal with. I keep in contact with him as often as possible. Nothing's too much trouble, and he's never too busy for a chat. I don't think he was too pleased to hear what happened to his pride and joy though.... I bought the car off him in '96 I think.

Andy - the next bonnet will be carbon fibre. The car's a bit of a tank at present. Maybe time to lighten it up a bit to help the power to weight ratio
