PS We are still seeking funding partners to get a monoliner prototype into the eroadracing world series and then on to low volume race and road vehicle production . It will be a carbon composite chassis based upon the tested and validated steel monoliner prototype you see here. Get your investment in now before we attract a load of green technology people with cash to spare. Be part of team monoliner? corus2000@aol.com. Did you say you want to order one now?
