Not sure about road registering--(couldn't be bothered with that challenge)

| Re: Another first...Australia Very nice,
My plan is to finish my rusty DRB sell it and buy an RCR aswell.
Shame you're not road registering as that would of been interesting.
I'm working on the Missus trying to talk her into a US RCR factory visit.

| Re: Another first...Australia "I'm working on the Missus"
Don't tell me , she's broken down or gone rusty too ?
Tell you what! -- instead of an RCR visit --you'll need all that expenditure for the Dollar difference,import duties ,taxes and shipping ( especially to that remote outpost in WA)etc  -- so, ahh what do you need to know ??

| Re: Another first...Australia  I think she needs an oil change as her lubrication is not what it used to be  . Quote: |
so, ahh what do you need to know ??
| Maybe a trip to the Gold Coast might be easier to achieve.
Any idea on the torsional rigidity of those RCR's???
I can see myself tearing around town in a Lola with a LS1.
I want pics as soon at it arrives...

| Re: Another first...Australia Good grief Chris, how did you talk the Princess into letting you build one of THOSE.
Doesn't look remotely like a coffee table.
Good luck, and wish it was going to be registered for road use.

| Re: Another first...Australia You're Welcome to come and look at the DRB's if you're interested.
Oh and bring as much beer as your car boot will carry.
I'll let you know when I'm flying over to QLD to look at Flatchats
Lola, I'll need someone to stop me taking his one home with me.

| Re: Another first...Australia To me, the Red Car looks very different from the Blue Car (GD) earlier in the thread, or is that just the camera angle?
By the way, the Red Car (I think I am turning into a woman  ) looks awesome! |

| Re: Another first...Australia Keith,
the red car is an original bodied car and the GD is a stylised T70 type car.
We have two bodies for our spiders ...one like Chris's(flatchat) and also one like the red car....
Flatchats style is 4 inches narrower than the red car....but both look killer ....just pick your poison....
