Default Talon

I met phil from talon the other day and must say I think that we dont cut him enough slack.The two chassis I picked up from him were built to a decent standard and represent good value for money. He beavers away in that shed of his knocking out stuff and developing new ideas and gets very little in recognition for it. I was having a look at his new bodywork plugs and when they are done they will be top notch. An inch extra in the scuttle height to help clear some of the taller lumps, a nose cone with better cooling vents in the top. Then his solution for the mx5 diff mounting , pictures dont do this justice, the box formed diff casing to me is a no brainer making the diff mount in the same proven way the sierra unit is mounted. That and a lot more is going on down there and Phil is stuggling to make ends meet. I do believe its a case of use him or loose him, if he goes it would be a loss for the roadster builders. I cant see anyone filling his boots.
