|  Roy Smart drives New RCR!!
Well almost 
In actual fact, Chris Melia kindly came by with it and Roy steered it whilst it was moved into a viewing position at the GTD40 Club AGM today and very nice it looked too.
There was much interest in the car, especially the superb welding that is a work of art in itself, so expect more photos shortly and a full write up in a future club mag....
Nice one Fran!

To get the best out of the car aerodynamically roy .. You will need to sit lower in the cockpit, not only that your A*** would get quite hot.
Nice day at the AGM, thanks to all the committe and Andrew for his hospitality and good time.

Hi guys,
How about some introductions all around? For those of us not exactly in the neighborhood, it would sure be nice to put a name to the faces... how about it boys?
Regards to all,
T.

Hi Mark / T
AGM stands for Annual General Meeting, the sort of official bit of club work, where we discuss club matters with membership and elect club officers etc etc. As usual we make it a social event too, with a BBQ and a short awards ceremony for the sprints & hillclimb season results and a line-up of interesting cars -
See some of them at: http://www.pixagogo.com/6867764643
or Dr John - Autosport
Re the RCR - Left to right.
Chris Melia - Phil? - Roy Smart - Andrew Fordyce - Peter Hearn.

Hi Ron -
Hopefully Chris will explain more..... he was collecting/delivering the roller to it's lucky new owner and had arranged to visit our club AGM (he is a member also) so people could view the car. As mentioned above, it was warmly received and many remarks were made regarding the 'modern' approach being taken with the aluminium and excellent welds etc etc.
All in all - Thumbs up!
