Sorry to disappoint.

Thanks and I hope you were not being sarcastic like last time you congratulated us.
More general info.
The chassis is completely manufactured in house and we have made a large investment in specialist tooling, machinery and facilities to be able to do this. We found that if the work were to be subcontracted out, because of the nature of the materials involved, we would be forced to deal with companies who manufacture F1 and Aerospace products which both attract high pricing. The idea was to keep it affordable.
The Chassis is available manufactured in Aluminium or Carbon Fibre in both right and lefthand drive.
Every single mounting and fixing point is factory installed to insure accuracy so that assembly by the home builder can be completed using only simple hand tools.
There is absolutley no welding, cutting or fabrication work required to complete the assembly. This is a fully developed product which is why we have taken so long to introduce it.
Every single part required for completion is available direct from Tornado Sports Cars and all items are supplied with all required fixings.
All mountings and fixing points replicate those found on our spaceframe chassis so that earlier cars can be stripped, have the chassis exchanged and be rebuilt with the original cars components.
We have 3 other projects using a Carbon Chassis under development at this time.
A single seat Hill Climb car which will be available in kit form, a 2 seat sports racer and another popular replica car for the road.
We have also been approached by another company to produce a chassis for them using our facilities.
Thanks
Andy
