Hope they have done the 'Wind Tunnel' thing as its doesnt appear to have much downforce to aid its 200mph + performance at least the true 200+ cars have retractable wings and splitters.

Hi Guys,
That thing looks awesome. I'm only here for one reason and thats a bit of a claim to fame really. It was my Viper they used for the original Bristol Fighter. Sadly before I owned it, but none the less it was still the 'organ donor'. Anyway thats about it from me. Take care all.

Craig.

P.S. Its still dead, been in an American Car specialist now for three weeks but fingers crossed its going the right way!

Erm, think they are called American auto parts and repairs or something like that. He was recommended to me by somebody at my Mam's work, he's worked on his '56 Chevvy and did a good job so fingers corssed he can get mine living again.

went past the Kensington Bristol showroom, they do seem to change the cars about, up front today was a 'fighter' with the doors open, tango orange does seem a strange colour for their conversative buyers
