| Re: New Superlite website and Forum Many things need to be taken into account…. A couple of examples spring to mind.. Ultima has sold millions of dollars worth of product in the past 20 years of business. The cars themselves have proven to be very worthy contenders in the “supercar” performance stakes but the mainstream still refers to the car as a “kit car” and all the bad connotations that this name carries.. Radical has been able to shake this a little with their approach but a full on race Le Mans style race programme has bolstered their position ands reputation. Noble has sold cars into the US market place with great success and never had to prove themselves on any World level attempting to break records…. If we ran the ring faster than an F40 would it translate to having a reputation like Ferrari? So does waving ones manhood around in public translate to more sales? As much as I would enjoy the physical challenge of running an SL-C at the ring, running here in the States is far more appropriate , and using drivetrain components that are relative to the home market sources , that don’t suffer from currency fluctuations are where its at for me….hence my use of the Ford GT transaxle and the LS7 as the new package, along with the standard G50 packaging…. That being said I hope to have a CIMA/Gearfox box here very soon for evaluation… Thanks for the votes of confidence………
