There are people within the haynes and locost scene that have engineering and car building experience that don't all sing the prises of Andy at SSC due to their own dealings and opinions on what they have seen, so please don't assume that it's just one member with a bee in his bonnet . It's all well and good that the back slapping and prise is given to those that produce parts for those that can't or would rather buy but please consider that people who are qualified and experienced in their field do tend to call a spade a spade. There is a back storey to this that will not be made public but does explain alot. If you want to know the why's and what for's I'd talk to the people involved and make your own mind up.
Well done Tallon

This is yet another good thread completely ruined

All for the benefit of self promotion & that of your new found business associates

Totally agree, if there is a disagreement between you and "anyone else" why not pick up the phone and talk like an adult instead of washing your dirty laundry in public. Trying to degrade peoples services/products on a public forum which is supposed to benefit those who are trying to build a bloody kit car is becoming bloody boring

Single seaters are only allowed on track days with other single seaters, they don't qualify for the kit car series as they are classed as open wheeled cars.

It's the reason we opted to drop making ours before it went too far because we saw it as mainly a track based car rather than a road car.

If folk have a problem with me then please come to Exeter as I love nowt better than face to face talking. I might be a short arse but I do love a " heated chat"

The internet makes folk very brave!!!!

Is it a single seater in the strict sense of the breed Mark,there may be a place in sports and saloon's as in the Northern sports series as there are different classes and things like Jade Trackstars run around in saloon bodywork and run low 1.20's around Croft.

well what a pile of shite bubbling up again
the definition of FORUM is a public space for "DEBATE"
and or discussion board
would you lot stop being a bunch of knobs.....

if Spud puts up a picture of his latest project then it is up for debate..
from a debate you will get various opinions..
accept that!!!!!!!!
Spud is an adult who publishes his business and work on this forum..
there fore he invites debate ....
just because somebody has a negative opinion of what is published they should not get flamed on here.
As somebody who likes spuds work should not be called a Handyandy back slapper

For my two penny worth!!!!!!!
Spud you crack-on its your canoe ! paddle it just the way you like..
its your business and your decision to promote it how ever you want to..

myself i,ll reserve comment until i see the finished result..
but a self build road legal s/seater car has me well interested
cheers les g
