Apparantly that's what's behind no RS Spyders being available to customers before 2007. By all accounts the A380 has hoovered up just about all the carbon fibre going. Paradoxically two major Russian carbon fibre manufacturers (Polemo and Eksiton) closed their doors or moved away from carbon fibre production in the last few years - which probably doesn't help matters enormously.

That is the big question. It needs track time and lots of it. The ACO have seen it, but do they want to see it on track.

It looks as good as any LMP2 out there and I look forward to seeing it.

DSC are confirming the destination of the fourth Radical SR9 when it comes off the production line. The recipients of the car will be van der Steur racing. The car will debut at Lime Rock with Gunnar van der Steur and Ben Devlin sharing the driving duties. The car will have AER power.

racingfanatics.com had an interview with Gunnar van der Steur about future plans (see here)
Quote:
KM: Houston is the next stop on the ALMS schedule, going to make it? With last years chassis?
GvdS: Sure will Ken, we will be their in our Lola B2K/40

KM: Don't take this the wrong way Gunnar, but any chance of seeing the #19 on a new Lola chassis this year?
GvdS: No Ken, you will not see #19 on a new Lola this year.
Now this last answer makes sense

Wouldn't it be possible to replace the LMP2 engine with, say, a AER v8 turbo? then go into LMP1

The Rollcentre colours are appearing. I can not wait for the LMS test days to see some pictures of the car running.

I believe these are the first pictures of the completed SR9.

The car is on it's way to Paul Ricard for it's shakedown and the LMS test days. Let's hope it goes as good as it looks!

I expected the Rollcentre Radical to be completely green. Maybe the stickers are not finished yet. It looks very nice indeed. The only detail I don't like is the double rollover bar.

BTW it has F1 style exhausts like the new Lolas.

The creation car looks brilliant. The hybrid changes havn't changed the car too much, only real thing you noice is the double loops but imo it looks like a winning car and it shud be.

with the photos that have been released of the Creation i find it hard to comment .the pictures weve seen through links on here are awfull and dont show a decent view of the car.Plus its plain blue no car looks that great without its full paint job for example the Dyson Lola pictures from sebring test in black looked pretty plain but come the race looked alot better.

After that little grumble tho this Radical does look very nice ..lets hope it makes LM and runs as good as it looks to throw a challenge to the porsches..(I guess they will be going ?)
