That cage is hardcore! Similar trick touches to that last hillclimb car you had (front engine mount etc), was it built by the same people?

Yes, they were both the work of Andrew Bradley (BTEC Racing). This turbocharged one was the 'evolution' of the previous naturally aspirated one.

I will get some pictures of the underneath soon, where there are more interesting things like a rose-jointed adjustable rear anti-roll bar, alloy fuel tank, side-exit exhaust system etc.
