Forum newbie but not a car newbie!

Post by bimbleuk »

As I've already posted a couple of times I think I'd better introduce myself.

My name is Justin and I live in Gloucestershire. I work for an IT training company and so have plenty of time to browse forums on the net!

I've been modifiying cars for over 15 years and mostly stuck to driving Toyotas (Corolla, Celica, MR2 mk1 & mk2) and heavily modifying the engines but not necessarily the apperance. Recently I've been tending towards minimum weight hence a while with an Elise and now the Striker kit car. Not necessarily the kind of car to appeal to the average BIGPOWER subscriber but I've built a new mota and its supercharged but that all I'm saying till I do a write up on it :)

At the very least the power to weight will give my car a chance against the HiPo cars on here!

This one looks a bit more sophisticated than Frank's one I think. Might just be different body shell though :?
