Why this chassis?
F**k, I don’t really know. I just liked it and wanted
to keep a car long enough to make it cool. I’ve
had this for about five years now, [which is] more
or less ages for me.
And the running gear?
The RB has always been what I’ve ran, and I’ve
finally got a good package that you can just go
out to blow tyres and fuel without any problems.
That reliability, I guess.
What are your
intentions with the car?
Next up would be to do the head. I’ve sold all my
skid rims, so I could get the head done by James
at JT Performance. We’ll do some cams and
stuff, and James will retune it.
