985cc Turbocharged Nova Sprint Car

I find myself going "oooh" and inspecting the pickup points etc on the chassis/geometry. Think I need help lol

Wow! Love the 340R! Never seen them with the see through panels before the were usually just silver and black shame they were limited production not seen one for ages.

I did ask Magnum about making a Carbon Widearch Kit they never got back to me :S

Doesn't surprise me greatly, I've not heard a lot of great reports about Magnum.

Phil Baines will make a kit in carbon, and his work is superb (he supplied all the panels on my last 2 Escort Cosworths). It will NOT have the carbon weave exposed on it though, all his stuff is finished in gel coat. And inevitably, they're not cheap, he was talking about £1k for a full kit.

Yes I have brought stuff from them before took over 6 months for my fibreglass roof skin to turn up.:mad: Will have to give Phil Baines a go, is he one of the guys that has some fibreglass Nova panels on eBay along with escort cosworth ones too?

Yes, that will be Phil, he does list on EBAY from time to time. He's a one man band, and supplies most of the rallycross guys. If you're contacting him, tell him that I sent you his way please.

Picked up the bumpers to go with that wide arch kit at the weekend;

And as you can see acquired a snowplough splitter as well.

I still haven't decided whether to go with the Mk.2 bumpers, or stick with my current Mk.1 style.

There is also a carbon fibre splitter/undertray sat beneath the fibreglass Mk.2 front bumper, I got it off a Touring Car long ago and plan to modify it to fit whatever bumper I end up using.

keep it mk1 IMO. keeps it in character. it will look to new with a mk2 bumper.
