It's really great to look at the first page of this thread & then to see this. You have come a long way. Really cool!
Are you using the same basic chassis design as your first one? _________________ Mic

Dear Mic, its been quite a ride. The only rule being "always better than before".
Here are some more pics. As you can see the chassis is still very simple but has changed to a more porsche rs61 style. The one on the photos is still missing some tubes, but you get the idea.

Two more photos. The fuel cap mounting is temporary, will be recessed. Some other work still need to be done, like the windshield.

Well done, more work involved there than most of us have never been able to attempt. Consider yourself clever for sure
