Like you 'race only' system much better Rick! Got my replacement clutch from KEP, so will get car registered soonish I hope.

Well, there's not much to see regarding photos. It's not painted and so looks like any other DRB in Gulf blue gel coat. All the painting and finishing off will happen once car is road registered. It does have a CAMS log book already though, so it's a race car, if not yet a road car!

Well, after nearly a year in the build, DRB #67 hit the road for the first time last weekend. Wasn't a real exciting drive, but was nice to verify that it all worked as it should, clutch notwithstanding. Plan was to drive it to workshop for wheel alignment first thing, but clutch decided not...

That's some nice work with the dash there Lance. Must catch up sometime and see how the car is coming along. Next time you ask, I hope to be in Perth to take you up on the offer! Regarding speedo placement. Well, the ADR says it can be a maximum of 30 deg to the left of the drivers eyes. So...
