Default Finally got wet in the roadster

I went out in the roadster this evening to my sons gymnastics class. When I cam out an hour later the heavens had opened and I had to sit in about an inch of water! Was still good fun with a very slidey rear end

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
Car iva'd and passed 15/08/2014. Finished weight 572kg.

I remember my Dad telling me around 16 years ago about bonding his ali panels to his Locost, you spend time making all the joints water tight the next thing you do is drill holes in the floor to let the water out!
