    Baz.
    The major race teams make their own chassis to COTF specs.
    "Horse-power can't be over a certain amount"?.....but it is!! "Downforce must be identical"?...Well, it "should" be!
    All good fun, Pickles.

    All good maties!!!
    I just get a little cranky when just because I own a Volvo or two I get written off as a old Mr Magoo bowler or whatever.... I've had it all my life.
    My driving style does not change what ever I drive.
    Go the Volvo!!!
    Regards
    Robbo
