Mini Update:
Heard from Matt earlier on Today and the car is making good progress just got a couple more wires to add in that I asked him to do today for an intercom so that I can speak to an instructor...
My BJT Clubman for the clio is also 500KG's they certainly aren't light if you get a decent sized one and twin axle although mine is the HD so that add's 50KG!
Sounds really tidy mate and I wouldn't worry about the mileage too much as long as it has decent service history and everything has been done thats required :). Good luck with the viewing and hope you get sorted!
CdA is the drag co efficient of the car which for the mk2 clio as standard I'm fairly sure is 0.35!
Not sure about the rolling resistance does it say what unit it needs it in? I guess it will be Crr?
Vehicle Mass is just the weight of the car so see what it weighed when corner weighting which...

Yes Jonny you can do and I looked into it but normally the rental trailers are quite a lot bigger than you need them to be so a bit of a pain for driving, they are also normally commercial so weigh a lot which...

Thanks :), I was really surprised by how well it drove I did 12 hours of driving to collect it and it wasn't tiring in the slightest I had to keep reminding myself it was even on the back of the car. The tow...

Nice try lol ;)
Sounds like you have already got a really good setup Mark and as you say once you have committed to going down one route it is an expensive game to change your mind!
Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He
Yes thanks again for the advice Tony this one is pretty much the same size as yours!
Haha I'm afraid I will never let my Alcons get away Mark :p I love them too much they are pretty mental ;)

Spoke with Matt earlier today and progress with the car is good and just applying the finishing touches ready for Donington on the 17th Feb. The car has had a false floor fitted to the drivers...
