Good reading your notes guys.

I will be keen to catch up with Mike Moore at Calder when he does the test day.

I spoke with him on the Thursday when I was at McDonald Bros. Racing.

He is obviously making good progress with the cobra. If it is anything like the Xtreme 7 roadster it should be a good car.

Having Mikes old motor and running gear (the 351 strocker) I keep in close contact with Mike.

McDonald Bros. Racing have built an idependant front end with tube lower arms and Jag. upper arms with bump stop ground off etc.

Using the Commodore big discs on front.

Have also put Commodore ends on the Ford 9" so will have big Commodore discs brakes on all corners. Just another McDonald Bros. Racing idea that really looks good and appears to work.

I have considered running Harrop discs and calipers but the general thought is the Commodore ones are more than adequate for street and limited track use.

Will make sure the body is well screwed down to the chassis as I dont want it being left behind - sorry Mike!!!


Cheers


Bernie
