Sambo, we have quite a few street registered ones around. The early cars like in the photos we heavily modified units purchased from RCR. These are actually the generation 1 cars.

We now build our own version called the Skeleton due to it's popularity. What is essentially generation 3.

The Skeleton runs an east-west mid-mounted Chev V8, aluminium chassis, CNC billet aluminium suspension and all new body work.

Most of the street registered cars have been generation 2 cars.

I can say its slow.....
Told you that you back off too early down the front strait!
I can't believe how relaxed you look, no sawing of the wheel to try and keep it on the track... What lap time was that?
At least shift it up manually.....
Nice driving mate!

It is a high 1:08 I think.
Yep you are right, backed off way too early, it looks obvious from the footage but it doesn't feel that way I give the tip.
When I am a big boy like uncle Ash I will hold it flat through the kink

I think you meant to say 'hold it flat thru the kink like Madison', I know I surely don't.

Baz,

Those are great pictures and you sure have some great looking cars there. Now if you just had our snow and ice as a background.

Don't worry Ron, it gets that cold and miserable there sometimes that I'm sure we'll see snow one day.
