Also raised rear top deck mount by 3mm and spaced middle & front by 3mm and thicker too deck as cut away sections at front and middle so belt is free flowing.

How did the car perform[/QUOTE]
Superbly, everyone slated me and said no hope but finished tenth overal in the Maritime indoor champs series against some highly placed F2 and F1's and showed that it can not only perform at the level of the new cars but can convincingly beat them but did take six events to get a good setup. Not bad for someone who doesnt practice and only does five races a year.
