Hi Keith

this mono is all steel its only the body that is alloy, however I am also making a fibreglass body for racing purposes as the alloy one is too valuable to risk bending it.

The steel mono structure is quite robust and even after a severe accident are usually repaired quickly, look at P1010 at this years classic Le Mans. I understand she will be out early next year.

Regards

Chris.
