The car has no kit yet, but I was considering one that improved the aero of this model quite a bit. Trouble was they only made 302 of the model with the bodykit. Personally , I think you should be allowed to run in B/GC . Maybe the rules should be changed to suit Australias smaller population . Our...

By my enterpretation of the rules for GC , ( and thats the class i raced in ), is that body has to be standard apart from wheel arch radiusing allowed . 500 cars of that model had to have been built .

Interesting looking Lakester on youtube

Not the most interesting video, just a series of still shots, but an interesting looking car

Are the SCTA rules going to be adopted at some point in the near future?
