They work out at around £6 each considerably cheaper than a new bulkhead. He should still have my drawing on file so it is easy for them to make them for you.

Might fit my spares on the rear now after seeing this.

Thanks Steve. Where do the carbon braces sit? I do have metal shock tower braces, for both front and the rear you can see the rear in the picture. But I guess something has to give, if the rear bulkhead did not break nor the tower it probably would have been the wing stay. I have a spare wing stay as I heard people break those.

That said, this car is ballistic and seems pretty strong everywhere else, it is certainly capable of winning, if only the driver was! I am only now about 0.5 laps off the pace at least at this event with this car. I used to be 2 laps off.

Cheers
Simon
