    Default BUDGET Class 2 Build - *FINISHED*

    Not been on here much over the last year or so, hadn't noticed this projects section.

    I'm building a class 2 autograss nova for my girlfriend to race. It's all stripped out with some very dodgy boot floor welding and we'll be fitting the cage ASAP.

    Here's photos (taken on a phone obviously) of the day it arrived, I will take some with a digicam of how it is now in the next day or so, then take some more of the build

    people say their car goes to heaven when scrapped. Wrong

    The scrapyard is hell, when a nova goes grassing, then it is in heaven

    I'm near Tenby btw

    it's all about the brownie points

    The car is staying Navy blue, the gold wheels are staying put too, and I'm painting the cage yellow. Has anyone got any suggestions for what colour to paint the screen mesh? neither gold or yellow seem right

    it's an option! but then again it'll clash with the yellow. Might settle for Navy blue, with a yellow or gold strip at the top.

    1st one at Pendine is March 25th. Easy to find the track, head for Tenby, follow the autograss signs from st clears onwards

    this is my second race. Note that sh*t car + sh*t driver = driving straight through the wet patch coming out of the first bend and watching everyone leave me for dead, then I ended up in the middle of the track (carried on though and scraped a fifth)

    I'm the red nova at the back of the pack
