Since the last post...

A lots happened since I last posted on here!

Work has begun on the rebuild of M6, last years car, now in the ownership of the team from Camborne Academy. Losing the bulky belt drive and almost half a meter in length off the frame, drastic weight saving has occurred. Plus this to its newly slimline width and M6 is on its way to a totally different look!

With a lot still to do the build is set to continue in a few weeks, but the builds not the only new thing about it. With new owners and a new look its only fair the name gets a revamp, so this year it will race under the name of M8, a testament to its planned improvements and from the M8 bolts it was actually built with! 

As for Ampherrous, the frame is now complete, test fitted with driver and the main components and is now stripped back and ready for the building of its bodywork which is also set to take shape in a few weeks.
Further to this, the drive brackets have been cut by Laser Master, a huge thank you sent out to them, and with the remaining axillary parts now on order we now have everything needed for the final assembly! 

Come back soon to check out the development of both projects.


With a busy Christmas ahead we should see some noticable improvments come the start of the New Year, then its the countdown to the Corporate Challenge!
