Re: RCR Chassis #14 Ron McCall

Ron

Superb, and thanks for your advice on roll bars etc. Its interesting to see a lardy 21st century GT posing next to a Real Mean Fourty Machine!

I shall seek further advice once my build is underway if that's OK with you

Respect - John

Re: RCR Chassis #14 Ron McCall

Hey Ron,
What alignment specs did you use?

Your car looks great, more than can be said for that poor Boxer Berlinetta ....... yick, sometimes race bred bodywork is uh.... ugly.
Although the other Ferrari is beautiful .... 333sp?

Congrats on a successul shake down run... it's a tribute to your considerable engineering skills, IMO.
