What I was waiting to see.
Now we need on for the Ford MkIV.

I still haven't done the fine tuning but so far it's a little slower than the slot.it 2E and I think it's a little heavier (I will confirm that). I have the NSR Ford MkIV and if you add up the cost of a MRRC Mk IV, a shapeways chassis and either a slot.it donor GT40 or the individual bits and pieces the NSR is cheaper and in the end probably runs better. But that's just my opinion.

That looks right at home under there with the alternate rims Bob!
Nice solution!

I weighed the slot.it chappy 2E at 67gms. The MRRC/Olifer/slot.it 2F weighs 79gms. That equates to about a 0.3sec slower lap on my 55' routed track.
