It doesn't matter how many times I see this car........it always strikes me as something special. Nice update Dan; not heard of Momentum.........I take it they're American?

I bet Gary has been having fun with the Corner weights!

Momentum are the guys in Ireland that fabricated the front and rear tubular subframes that are on the car- http://www.momentummotorsport.co.uk/

It's a head-scratcher, that's for sure! It's surprising how much difference it makes with just raising/lowering a coilover by a single turn.

We could have a "guess the weight of the Evo" competition to pass the time until the next update...

That's including Logan too. The APT Evo is 1396kg inc Mr Hayward and 20 litres of fuel.
