Name the car and engine - hardly cryptic title should help.

Will update some time soon

Seriously impressive build so far. Been following it for a while and was wondering when you’d post it on here.

Thanks - its pretty basic build in many ways but plenty of items could be considered 'revA' at this point in time - I'd say some body work not even finished yet may be subject to amendment lol

Packed in the instagram malarkey there was wasting too much time scrolling threw crap I really wasn't that interested in.

Have never really posted much on here about either the starlet or this but will fire some stuff up here now when it comes together a bit more.

Then this sort of silly shenanigans started... drop spindles 'revision A' in place and hubs swapped to 5studs & some magic marker later....

Anyways - having decided from previously using my starlet gt turbo in the NI hillclimb& sprint championships i wanted to build something cheap(relatively speaking) but fairly focused on going quickly - out came the pencils for a doodle

90% of the internals mentioned in the hand sketch have changed

but as for the lowered and widened MRS outline i think we are pretty much on target for it so far.

found a side profile of the car in CAD and a friend 'Sam Archer' ran some basic CFD for the craic on it.
then i found a second hand simon mcbeathsm183 profile rear wing for cheap and got it bought.
