Chris Wilson Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 You rarely see pure white serious race cars as white paint is by far the heaviest due to the types of pigment used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManwithSupra Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 The All Carbon Interior is now finally well underway. This is 100% Ultra lightweight Carbon Fiber no fiberglass here at all. The floor panels have 4 layers of 200gsm carbon and a Honeycomb core to help keep the weight down over solid carbon. I have tested this and it can take my whole weight without failing. Some trimming here and there but its pretty much there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManwithSupra Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 Thought I'd share a picture of the car on our stand at the Autosport show just gone. https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xft1/v/t1.0-9/12507245_1675994922680300_7955371054403481859_n.jpg?oh=2068462d1b82a04362a58a627c4f0a7e&oe=574454B4 https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpt1/v/t1.0-9/12509144_1675994949346964_9212263586343323465_n.jpg?oh=f00936c2015b2c73df700b79ffc7a4c7&oe=5749D16C Was good to meet some fellow Supra owners during the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManwithSupra Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) Unfortunately didn't get to meet you but had a good chat with your dad and gave him some ideas for component development Stand looked awesome Ah, they said another member from MKIV came over, it was the only time I decided to have a break and get some late lunch. Yep as you proably now know my father runs a precision engineering company which is where I get all my 2D and 3D CNC work done now, it was a good oppertunity for him to gain some more contacts so I let him come along with a few examples for the duration of the show so he can expand Thanks Edited January 19, 2016 by ManwithSupra (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the car has come a long way since Ryan had it, it was nice to show it off (although still only 98% complete lol) it had a lot of interest though which was good. Was nice to see Ryan.G too.. Poor guy kept saying he misses it but is really amazed on how far its come and how it looks. Was also happy that Toyota GB put the car on their blog although they got the fact that it only runs a single turbo wrong - http://blog.toyota.co.uk/toyota-2016-autosport-international-show Edited January 19, 2016 by ManwithSupra (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
